This video is not available in your country.
Damn you, youtube!!! Damn you to hell!!!

P.S.: To really feast on me, this only pops up for the cover - the it allowed me to suffer through the original but denied me resting with the cover.
 

T-Bone

In Cryo Sleep
As soon as I read this there was one jumping out at me. I think it's the greatest cover of all time.

Crossroads by Robert Johnson

Covered, of course, by - Cream

[Edit:- I cant see the second video for the same reason as angelic and it occurs to me after rereading your post that you were looking for really bad covers. Oh well.:P]

Nooooo, not bad covers. Gooood covers. Covers that make you forget the hideous original.

In terms of covers, there is only one place you need to look.

The Radio 1 Live Lounge.

There are 3 double CD's available with some of the best covers and performances that have happened there over the years, and every single one is awesome.
 

Bradstreet

In Cryo Sleep
Alanis Morissette's cover of My Humps...
