She murdered it. How dare you say it was good... The chop suey cover was funny though.

And the drummer should be shot. Even i can play it properly.

One was ginger, I think.

Yo' Ugly, actually.
And, if my memory serves me correctly, it's Daphne and Celeste. It took me a moment to remember Celeste's name, due to the fact that it's stupid. But I got there in the end.
And, for some odd reason, I seem to remember something about Daphne being fit. I think.
Hmm.

School's out for summer - by those tarts that did, "you ugly".

Avril Lavigne - Basket Case

That rocks!

I know that sounds like sarcasm, but it actually does.

Heartily Reccomended:

HIM- Hand of Doom (Black Sabbath cover)
Judas Priest- Better by You, Better than Me (Gary Wright cover)
The Offspring- Hey Joe (Jimi Hendrix cover)
Mull Historical Society- It Takes More (Ms Dynamite cover)

Stuff to Keep Clear of:

Avril Lavigne- Chop Suey! (System of a Down cover)
Lemar- I Believe in a Thing Called Love (Darkness cover)

I have loads of covers, none of which are particually classic. Best of the bunch being:

Blaze Bayley - Dazed And Confused (Led Zep, duh)
Children of Bodom - Aces High (Iron Maiden)
Children Of Bodom - Shot In The Dark (Ozzy)
Children Of... Noticing a pattern yet? - Silent Scream (Slayer)
Graveworm - Fear Of The Dark (Maiden)
Metallica - Whiskey In The Jar (Thin Lizzy)
Metallica - Stone Cold Crazy (Queen)
Motorhead - Enter Sandman (Metallica)

And some more stuff you'd be even less interested in.

Hmmm, only covers i have got are;
H.I.M - Solitary Man (originally by Neil Diamond)
Lost Prophets - Cry Me A River (Justin Timberwuss)

Aye

The Lemonheads - Mrs Robinson (originally by Simon and Garfunkle, right?)

The Prodigy - No Good (originally by someone else), although their Ghost Town cover was the worst thing they've ever done (probably because the original song's a pile of cack and they lifted half of it).
