A full album of dross on it's way. According to the sun today Radio 1
are releasing 40 cover versions on a cd to celebrate their 40th birthday

A track by current artists to cover a song from each year from 1967 - 2006

My particular favourite is a town called malice being covered by Mcfly

Young's 1983 hit come back and stay

No doubt of interest to you is that Robbie Williams covers Lola and
all along the watchtower now by the Fratellis

Without You, covered by that bird with huge plastic tits. What's her name... Mariah Carey.

A sensitive and touching love song turned into a shouty bellowing mess.
