10,000 maniacs - Every day is like Sunday.
 
 Also, any song were the cover artist puts in too many "wooooooaaaah's" at the end of each line like Whitney Houston does.
 
 I think it's referred to as "diahrrea of the vowels" or something.

I was hoping someone would call me on that.  Just to clarify, Didster never covered Zigster.

I didn't believe it for one second....but ironically I heard Bauhaus sing their cover version of it last night on XM and thought to myself..."WHY?" That's like xeroxing the Mona Lisa. I don't mind if people do covers for the most part, but nobody except Bowie should sing that song.
 
 Which brings us to another question.
 
 Which songs should NEVER be covered, and why?
