Worst cover versions

Okay, I know Westlife have pretty much got this category to themselves, but I've just heard (must have wiped it from my memory) a version of the classic Isley Brothers song Summer Breeze done by some ball-less Yanks named Seals and Croft. So bad, they should bring back stoning as a punishment for it.

Another night is fine by me.

Never saw V and B in Catterick.

Ace Of Bass was wonderful in comparison to Seals And Croft. I've also just heard a version of Sandie Shaw's Always Something There To Remind Me by an outfit unknown to me but who have a Scott Walker soundalike lead vocalist. And it's quite good!

I've been meaning to ask, not being a Corrie (or any other soap) watcher, but did Fred, I say, did Fred Elliot actually ever say that on the show?

And there was me thinking it was some sort of rapper patois he was coming out with.

If that is the Lee from Adele's one definite hard photo-shoot, sorry, but I hate him :-)

He did actually identify himself in one of those posts.
I don't suppose he's exactly required to produce deathless prose in his, um, day-job......

I know.

I still hate him, though.
