Old Dog 179138 Report post Posted September 5, 2010 Luxie... while I agree that Hilary Duff did absolutely NO justice to Depeche Mode, the fact that she is no longer jail bait and is displaying a great deal of sexual energy has me vexed..... maybe if I turned the sound off and just stared it would be very very good......

Surf_Nazis_Must_Die 8958 Report post Posted August 28, 2011 My vote goes to Pat Boone desecrating Dio's Holy Diver. Goddamn Ronnie James Dio Had quite possibly the best set of pipes in all of hard rock/metal. Hearing Boone warble over it in his half assed pseudo lounge voice brings me to the brink of raging violence! Sorry folks, I really love Dio, may he rest in peace :( Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bananapants 167 Report post Posted August 31, 2011 I remember seeing this one a few years ago. It pissed me off back then, having a band I despised covering a song I loved by a band I loved, and doing a terrible job. It doesn't make me angry to watch it now, but it's still a really bad cover.
