Worst Mac-related cover version
A comment on one of the other threads inspired this one. Now, I do love unearthing random cover versions and so I was wondering... what covers of Mac/Stevie/Lindsey solo songs do you think are the worst?
I'd have to go for Lindsay Lohan's Edge of Seventeen, Elton John's Don't Stop and whoever does the version of Songbird on the Rumours tribute album (his name has gone right out of my head)...Abominations, all of them. Any others folks? Oh, and is this gonna spawn a sister "best covers" thread?

The "studio 99" (whoever they are) version of Little Lies is quite possibly the worst thing I've ever heard. Ever.

Let's include the Cyndi Lauper version of You Make Lovin' Fun...since I think it had a hand in inspiring this thread

Nothing beats Elton John's Don't Stop. Unlistenable.

Duncan Sheik covered "Songbird" on the Rumours tribute. I agree, it's horrible.

Not a fan of Wilson Phillips' GYOW.

Honestly, I don't like anyone doing that song. Anyone but FM, that is. LOL

I actually think their take on it is quite interesting. The best covers are when they aren't carbon copies IMHO. Not crazy about the Cranberries version...

Yes, I like Matchbox Twenty's NGBA for that reason. As for Wilson Phillips, I don't dislike their GYOW because it's unlike the original. I just don't think it's any good.

I surprised myself by liking the Cranberries version. I was nervous about it because I really like the Cranberries but I don't think it's too bad at all. The Cranberries' No Need To Argue was such a huge album for me when I was a teenager!

Nothing short of a prison sentence is appropriate for lindsey lohan, as punishment for that.
Not heard many covers, the Corrs doing Dreams I feel is just plain pointless, how about Rod stewarts "Stand back"? .. sigh, at least that ones mildly amuzing.

If I had an axe I would chop my own head off if I ever had to listen to Lohan doing a sexual exhale in place of Stevie's awesome ooooooooooh/snarl/growl in the middle of Edge of Seventeen.

The group Camper Van Beethoven, a band from Athens, GA, fascinated by Tusk, covered the entire album on a whim in 1987. They finally released it in 2002. It's alternately bizarre (sic?) rough and strangely compelling. The Stevie tracks faired the worst. According to the band, no one wanted to approach her songs!
