Not a cover, at least not as far as I could tell but getting a lift back from work last night there was an unholy racket playing on the radio. Sounded like somone was torturing a cat while letting some brain damaged nutcase (c)rap to it  noooo:

Not sure if you would necessarily call them bad covers but the Leningrad Cowboys certainly do some strange versions of tracks. Sweet Home Alabama with the Red Army Orchestra comes to mind.  lol:
