Placebo - Twentieth Century Boy. Unspeakable cover of the T Rex choon by the nasally challenged Brian Molko and Co. When it comes to the history of Benelux rock, Molko is truly the missing link between Golden Earring and The Smurfs.
Megadeth - God Save The Queen. Dave "Ned Flanders" Mustaine is such a Pistols fan, he doesn't even need to bother to learn the correct lyrics - substituting "No more council tenancies" with "no more cunt-like tendencies". Thankfully, Megadeth's career started a non-stop descent from here.
Tom Jones - Kiss. Mr Woodward turns the fey Prince and The Revolution summery pop number into a sweaty, medallioned, Brut 33-wearing sweatathon, assisted by the Art Of Noise and their Fairlight. The Jones should stay in Vegas and never descend on a recording studio again.
