One of my all time favorite covers is this very song and second place is People Get Ready by them as well.

Mini KISS doing Strutter. It's like a train wreck but you can't stop watching.

Says it's Miley Cyrus doing Wasted Years by Iron Maiden but I'm not convinced. Do not like it whoever is doing it.

Wasted Years

Faith Hill...cover of “Piece of My Heart” - NO ONE should sing that after Janis Joplin... Faith Hill’s version is so lame.

Seriously?
The Rolling Stones covered Motown - Ain’t too Proud to Beg and Just My Imagination.
The Beatles covered Please Mr. Postman.
Credence covered Heard it Through the Grapevine.
Joan Osborne - What Becomes of the Broken Hearted.
No cringing.

So far, no one has listed Tom Jones covering Prince's Kiss.

The Christmas Carol singing dogs would do a better version of “Piece of my Heart” than Janis Joplin.

Never could stand the stundo-tard style, and she absolutely NAILS that genre. Talentless off-key poorly syncopated caterwauling. LOATHE Joplin. And the whatever the hell Holding company she “sang” with.

Anything today’s “artists” cover from the 70’s or 80’s is horrible.

The only one I ever heard was Shantner doing Lucy in the Sky. It was at some sort of Star Trek convention, and it was more of a spoof than a cover. Non-Trekkies probably wouldn’t understand.

I can’t stand Madonna but her version of American Pie sounded OK. The video part was lame.
