Bad Cover Songs by Metal Artists

[DaKillerWolf]

Here are two covers of In-a-godda-da-vida that the music is pretty good but they fail terribly on the vocals......

I like both of these too.

Depends on the band, the song, the version that is put out, and the metal fan


Come On Baby Light My Fire has always been a terrible am pop tune IMO and I love the Doors for the most part ..think that is only one I don't like.

and to think from my perspective, Light My Fire is classic Doors. In all honesty, though, I am not a big Doors fan. I would much rather listen to The Who, Traffic, Led Zeppelin, or Cream.

I think Ozzy can get away with murder so I'll be the one who puts this in:

Also I pull an opposite from the best metal covers entry and put a bad cover by Marilyn Manson:

I think this was scraping the bottom of the barrel for Twisted Sister:

Shagri-Las Leader of the Pack

I don't really like very much of The Who but like the others a lot. There are PLENTY of bands I would rather listen to then The Doors most of the time but they are still a GREAT band and one of the cream of the crop from the 60's IMO.

Yeah, Twisted Sister should have been slapped w/ a landmine for covering such a goofy tune. That whole albums is awful and the down fall of TW who's first two are awesome metal albums. Stay Hungry was really good over all as well even though they had some semi goofy hits on that album.

Ron Keel sounded awful here:

Has anyone seen or remember the Leader Of The Pack video from TS?? It's quite funny.
