Faith Hill does a fantastic version of Springsteen's 'Should I fall Behind'. In fact most cover's I've heard of Bruce's songs are pretty good I think.

Great cover of Word Up by a band called Gun and the worst cover was by Mel B.The most painfull experience on my ears,was listening to a recording of the actor Richard Harris doing Macarthur Park.

It may already have been mentioned here so apologies if it has but "The Far corporation" murdered "stairway to Heaven" and Linda Clifford's disco version of "Bridge over troubled water" also scares me. Plus continuing the Fred Elliott theme on this thread, i am waiting for him to exclaim:
"you can say that again our Ashley, i say you can say that again".
