Well its a bit of a chnge in direction but Sixpence None the Richer's version of "There she goes" is awful!

and then New Found Glory 's version of Sixpence None the Richer's "Kiss me" is a sin! As if the song wasnt bad enough

We Are Scientist's do a made up version of Sigur Ros's 'Hopippolla', its quite funny!
