Cmon. That's not even HER best cover. That would be "The First Cut Is The Deepest" (Cat Stevens).

That's not her best cover? I hope not cuz I was just trying to think of the worst cover possible when I posted that.

Well, you did ok, but not great.

 

The worst cover in the history of music is Celine Dion covering ACDC's You shook me all night long. I'm sure its on youtube, if you feel like killing yourself.
