Celine Dion is Responsible for the 'Worst Ever Cover Song'

news.bbc.co.uk — Celine Dion is responsible for the world's worst cover version, a poll of music experts has decided. The Canadian star's rendition of the AC/DC track You Shook Me All Night Long was given the dubious honour in the Total Guitar magazine survey. Editor Stephen Lawson said Dion's cover was "sacrilege".

  • vbullinger, on 06/24/2008, -3/+8I don't know why we have to get so specific by including the word "cover."
