OK, folks. It's time to get serious.
Don't play this at work. It's Jim Davidson, singing White Christmas.
In a "comedy Jamaican" voice.

the recent cover version - not sure who by - of michael jacksons Beat it is ropey. esp the bit where the guiarist tries to do Eddi eVan Halens' solo from the song.
ok, he doesn't try to match it note for note but what we end up with is utter rubbish too.
EVH recorded that guitar tracks for that song in 15 minutes did you know??
Fallout Boy, but the guitarist is John Mayer, one of the finest young guitarists out there. EVH impressions aren't exactly his thing but I thought he did a good job of it, far better than if some soulless studio shredder had done it note for note anywayok, he doesn't try to match it note for note but what we end up with is utter rubbish too.

Would be more interested to hear someone like Jeff Beck do his own thing or John Petrucci of Dream Theater do something potentially more bonkers than the original.
I thought that it was a pretty poor cover all round, it just sounds pretty bland.

Almost as bad as Busted 'performing' teenage kicks.
I actually cant think of anyone more suited to sing a song originally written about wanking...My nomination.
Shatner doing Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds.
It makes you want to pull your own teeth our with pliers, let alone his.
An absolute travesty!!
One of my favourite songs from one of my favourite bands, covered by Sophie Ellis-Bextor!
