I just received a link to yet another example of bad covers. This time, it’s Pat Boone doing covers of tunes he was never meant to sing. As the Amazon review said, “You want absurd, this is the pinnacle… The mere idea of Pat Boone, Mr. Squeaky Clean himself, (ahem) crooning heavy metal tunes is bad enough, but it gets so much worse.” Check out the song samples, if you dare…
Among other absurdities, Alvin & the Chipmunks does Stayin’ Alive, and Time Warp. The Gregorian Monks chant R.E.M.’s Losing My Religion. Worst of all, former Labor Secretary Robert Reich sings Chain Gang.
