That's definitely a worthy entry in the Hall of Shame. Truly awful.

I'll take your "Behind Blue Eyes" cover submission  and raise you one "Behind Blue Eyes" cover by Limp Bizkit:

 That´s a hard decision, which of the 2 is the "winner" ?

There's a good case for both. But if there's special award for off-key singing, I think Limp Bizkit  and Kanye will be finalists.

Dreadful, disrespectful to the original, flawed, poorly performed, and dreadful:

Metallica - Whiskey In The Jar

An eternity of suffering in the fire pits of Hell awaits Paul:

That is a good one, on multiple levels. A definite Hall of Shame first ballot winner.

I feel it's best not for me to vote on this one,  as my wife likes 80s music,  including Paul Young. So I'll defer to my fellow judges.

That deserves extra special recognition in the Hall of Shame.  Truly terrible. If there's a Hell, I'm pretty sure this is playing there.

I like 80s music too, but I guess it's very different to the 80s music your wife likes.
