13 Worst Cover Songs Of All Time
3. TATu - How Soon Is Now?
tATu burst onto the scene in 2002 with their single ‘All The Things She Said’, which was accompanied by a controversial video for it’s time that featured the two female singers kissing each other. Shocking!
In an attempt to capitalise on the success of their breakthrough single, follow-up singles including ‘Not Gonna Get Us’ were released but each release found deteriorating levels of success.
A cover of The Smiths’ ‘How Soon Is Now?’ seemingly put a nail in their coffin and highlighted the dwindling interest the mainstream audience now had in the Russian music duo.
Their version of ‘How Soon Is Now?’ was a pale imitation of the original and did more harm than good for tATu, particularly in the eyes of the devoted Smiths fan base.
