Metallica covering Thin Lizzy's cover of the traditional Irish folk song "Whiskey In The Jar". James Hetfield, you are not a Irish folk singer, so ixnay on the Gaelic lines. Then again, I'm betting he only knew the Thin Lizzy version and had no idea in was a folk song originally. Their cover of Killing Joke's "The Wait" is more respectable, but it's still not as cool as the original.
I like most of what Soundgarden's done, but I heard a live bootleg in which they covered the Beatles' "Come Together" and it was just awful. Sounded like beer commerical music.
