"Korn - The final nail in their coffin?"

I have just had the severe misfortune to see the new video for Korn's crminally awful cover of Cameo's "Word Up"!! What a load of utter GAK!!! It is probably the worst song Korn have ever done, it isn't even like it is a Kornified version of the original, it is just a straight cover. I think/hope that this marks the end of the once great Korn.

you should be able to download it here if you want to see Korn's death knell.

Perhaps they have a contract for certain amount of albums and are churning them out quickly to get away from their overcontrolling label.

Perhaps they wanted to shock or confuse people. It just sounds like the cameo version :S

Never ever mention Mel B's....oops...

Hmmmm I wonder how it compares to Gun's version.

That's the best that I know of. :)

Yeah, but it ain't Korn is it? It just sounds too much like the Cameo original...that's my problem with it...Korn have reduced themselves to poorly done cover versions. They could have at least made it more Korn like (Manson's "Sweet Dreams" "Tainted Love" and "Personal Jesus" arre good examples).

I didnt know it was Korn when i first heard it. As i never thought that they would record a song like that. Must admit its ok.

As far as covers go i thought it was alright.
