Golden Throats Vol. 4: Celebrities Butcher Songs of The Beatles

Following the success of our last post(the bizarre cover versions of On The Rocks Pt.1), I now present to you another pearl of musical failure: Golden Throats Vol.4 - Celebrities Butcher Songs of The Beatles.

Who would be dumb enough to mix the theme from Mission:Impossible with Norwegian Wood?! A cover of Michelle sang by a dutch prostitute?! Joe Pesci singing Beatles?!? A ridiculous dramatic interpretation of Lucy in The Sky? "Don't Let me Down" sang by a girl who probably killed a man?

Only a few of these covers are extremely bad, they are beatles songs afterall. As bad as these singers are, it's almost impossible to make a bad song out of a Beatles one. In that sense, we got to praise Telly Savalas for managing to transform Something into a kitschy sugary mess that would make even Jesus cringe.

............................Congratulations, Telly. You're the man.
