In a hotel lobby recently I heard a steel drum version of "Love will tear us apart" - dreadful, but also strangely compelling.
Anyway, I think that having a musical group record [song originally recorded in style A] in hilariously or disturbingly different [style B] isn't exactly a new idea, so this is [marked-for-deletion] as being widely known to exist. |

//the Sex Pistols, Jimi Hendrix, and various others already did back in the 70's//
Of course, Hendrix didn't enjoy the punk '70's quite as much as the Pistols did.
For not only having apalling knowledge of popular rock legends but also for demonstrating it in public so conclusively, I nominate zen_tom to be the first halfbaker to be taken out and ritually sacrificed to the sun by carving his heart out with a blunt spoon. Plus, he should be humiliated a bit as well by having small children point at him and laugh (if they don't already do that anyway). |

WKTE (1090 AM) is a radio station broadcasting a gospel format....I am confused... |
|

I think [squeaketh] is subtly suggesting that there is a danger that gospel classics such as Dorothy Love Coates' "Get Away Jordan" or Sister Winona Carr's "Life is a ball game" might be ruined by being subjected to a ham-fisted punk-lite makeover. |

//first halfbaker [...] ritually sacrificed// - er, "first"? Of how many? |
|
|
lurch, as many as it takes!
Squirm & struggle all you like, z_t, but there's a sacrificial altar with your name on it at your nearest local ziggurat. We just need to scrub it down a bit first before we get the feathered costumes & the jaguar face-paint on. |

Black Flag covered 'Louie, Louie'. Does that qualify? |
