13 Worst Cover Songs Of All Time
10. Britney Spears - (I Can't Get No) Satisfaction
Who would have thought that Britney’s cover of ‘I Love Rock ‘N Roll’ wouldn’t be her worst?
Her rendition of Joan Jett’s classic, which itself is a cover of an Arrows song, was bad enough, but her ‘90s, synthetic pop murder of this classic Rolling Stones song is unforgivable.
If this was an attempt by Britney to earn credibility from rock and roll purists then it failed miserably. If anything, this cover only succeeded in cementing Spears the quintessential, cheesy pop star of the time.
Mick Jagger has surprisingly gone on record to see he liked Britney’s version of his song. But then again, Jagger did make that ‘Dancing In The Street’ video with David Bowie, so maybe you can’t always trust his judgment.
