When was the old song not worth listening to? The acoustic version was just annoying.

I have a few nominations:

"Kashmir" P Diddy

"Sweet Child O' Mine" Sheryl Crow

"You Lost that Lovin Feeling" Hall and Oates

[/ QUOTE ]

The Sheryl Crow one is awful...and some yahoo did that version in karaoke the other night...ugh.

Also...

"Drift Away" by Uncle Kracker...even though they had Dobie Gray with them, who was either senile, needing money, or both.

"I'm a Believer" by Smashmouth...not that the Monkees were all that great, but Smashmouth may just be one of my five least favorite bands.

"Ice Ice Baby" by Vanilla Ice...who the hell rips off Bowie?

You people really need to invest in a dictionary and learn what "remake" stands for.

Someone else did a remake of Drift Away that was 110 times worse. It was some younf Micheal Bolton type. have no idea the name.

My vote for Overkill remake of "Girl, you'll be a Woman Soon" you cannt remake Neil you can only parody.

That's hard to believe, and probably qualifies instantly as worst remake.

I mean, "Landslide" and "Sympathy for the Devil" are good to begin with, so a remake is bound to disappoint.

But "Ghostbusters"? How do you not improve on that?
