20 Other Terrible Beatles Covers

There is already a Buzzfeed post on 16 terrible Beatles Covers here. Behold for some extra 20.

20. Celia Cruz, "Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da"

Late salsa sensation, Celia Cruz was also famous for perpetuating the stereotype of the tropical maraca-obsessed latino.

19. Linkin' Park, Jay Z and Paul McCartney, "Yesterday"

I get Paul McCartney is probably the MOST generous human being on Earth; but he needs to set boundaries and just learn to say no, especially if the bidder for your most iconic song is Linkin Park.

18. Yanni, "Nowehere Man"

This is NOT your typical Yanni. This is folklore-possessed, full of ancestral percussions and winds, supported by some shepherd chorus Yanni.

17. The Bobs, "Helter Skelter"

A cappella groups are the music equivalent of having simultaneous cough fits and diarrhea. The Bobs were, at some point, considered the BEST a cappella group in their generation.

16. Camilo Sesto, "Day Tripper"

Flamboyant Spanish sensation Camilo Sesto made his own funky rendition of Day Tripper, successfully impersonating Chester Cheetah.

15. Beatallica, "Michelle"

I’m totally aware Beatallica is supposed to be a much elaborated joke on doing Metallica-Beatles mash ups; but that is pretty much like finding genetic mutations hillarious.

14. Jennifer Cihi, "I Want To Hold Your Hand"

For unknown reasons, this uncomfortable Sailor Moon version makes me want to call Child Protective Services.

13. Enrique Bunbury, "Come Together"

Enrique Bunbury impersonating Jim Morrison impersonating John Lennon. Spiced up with exciting new liberties taken on the original Beatles song.

12. Placido Domingo, "Yesterday"

Placido Domingo may be one of the best tenors in the world, but that doesn’t mean he can sing this comma inducing version of Yesterday and get away with it.

11. Lil Wayne, "Help!"

Before his fortunate and premature retirement, Lil Wayne took Help! and basically did to the song what cellmates do to other cellmates on Oz.

10. Björk, "The Fool on the Hill"

The Fool on The Hill version by a 12-yeared old Björk is pretty much like The X-Factor Goes Loco on Acid.

9. Chayanne, "Michelle"

Latin lover Chayanne insisted on making his own version on Michelle, not only singing it in Spanish, but also changing the original lyrics to incomprehensive verses of his own such as: “To tell you that I need you, that everything is the same to me, if you’re not with me, I won’t know how to live if you don’t love me the same way.”

8. Alice Cooper, "Because"

Not even the overrated Alice Cooper deserved to be portrayed as a reject of Willy Wonka’s Chocolate Factory on this creepy rendition to one of the most beautiful songs ever made.

7. The Metropolitan Police Male Voice Choir, "When I’m Sixty Four"

It's not just the Metropolitan Police Male Choir version that is creepy, it's also the fact that hey made a sketch on how they thought the Beatles would look like at 64 years old.

6. Al Jarreau, "She's Leaving Home"

Al Jarreau not only made the lovely account of a troubled teenager the first form of Xanax in the form of a song; he even doubled the original duration from 3:26 minutes to 7:53 minutes!

5. Ozzy Orbourne, "In My Life"

To put it mildly, Ozzy Osbourne turned what originally was a beautiful eulogy on transcendence into a corny and boring speech on the voice of a local drunk.

4. Ana Gabriel, "Something"

Mexican response to Bonnie Tyler, Ana Gabriel, also HAD TO dramatically change the lyrics on George Harrison’s masterpiece, Something, including outrageous new lyrics such as “Looking for the evening, I want to see you again".

3. Cathy Berberian, "Ticket To Ride"

Cathy Berberian was one of the most gifted sopranos in the world, and apparently a consummated comedian!

2. Cher, Tina Turner and Kate Smith, "Beatles Medley"

Cher and Tina Turner are amazing performers, which is why it’s hard to understand why they would even consider making this weird Beatles rendition. At some point they sound like drunken college girls trying to sing along some Coldplay song. Also, that is not Edgar Hoover in drag; that is long time radio celebrity Kate Smith.

1. Chayanne, Ricky Martin, Yuri, La Mafia, Magneto and Ilan Chester, "Hey Jude"

Latino music offenders, led by Ricky Martin, outraged the world by changing the lyrics of one of the most beloved and iconic pop hymns into some sort of soap opera dialogue. The song that formerly provided faith in humanity now only provided confusion and some bizarre sadness with new lyrics like “You’ll also be lonely, Hey Jude, why do I notice you sad as you leave? Because of a simple argument, Hey Jude, Maybe you’ll end up being alone”
