Everytime I hear this song, I throw up in disgust

Disagree here. All-time great ballad. The Ones version is topnotch but nobody comes close to the Righteous Brothers.

DJ weddings for 25 years and then tell me you still like that song.:%:Hey BossHoss tell Mike how awful the FATIGUES version is on their LP.
 
I love almost everything by IKE & TINA TURNER but River Deep, Mountain High is so over rated and frankly...boring. So are all covers. I call it a Wall Of Noise. Am I wrong?
 
Bald-Headed Woman I can live without running across another version of on yet another comp. I remember some kind of really crude Beefheart style Ooh Pooh Etc. I liked but mostly can well live without that as well.

It still bugs me UA did that horrible Ventures LP cover with a Buster Brown cartoon saying that and they never recorded it (one more reason to love The Ventures)!

Any track from "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band" is capable of causing a vomit launch for me

Though not a Beatles fan, I´m still not sure I´d go as far as echoing that sentiment, but is there any worthwhile Beatles garage cover tune recorded at all during the Golden Era?

I can take the original now and then, and then mostly the 2nd half. All others are pointless.

THAT song is thee most over-rated piece of tripe ever recorded, surpassing even the most self-indulgent Beatles tune (yer choice here....) It amazes me that everyone involved thought Spector had reached his creative zenith, and that it was a sure-fire #1 hit. The public was right in this instance, since the song tanked, barely creeping upward on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.

Mikey...Would your mother allow me to adopt you:lol:
 
Here's another alltime tune to make me "ralph" - "Give Peace A Chance", man does that one really get on my nerves. If some unknown had submitted that piece of shit to a major label it would not have gotten past the receptionists desk. Yuck !
