The Worst Cover Versions of All Time (An Occasional Series): Special Train Wreck Edition

From 2017 and a shall we say ill-advised Dan Fogelberg tribute album, here's Train committing the most hideous version of "Same Old Lang Syne" ever heard by sentient mammalian ears.



Seriously, if I were the type of guy who made New Year's resolutions, mine would be to hunt down and kill the A&R guy responsible for this.

More on the song tomorrow, but in the meantime, have fun tonight, everybody!!!

Speaking of the Worst Cover Versions of All Time, please "enjoy" the lovely Yoko Ono remake of Billy Joel's "Big Shot".

(There's another from the same occasion of Yoko c̶o̶v̶e̶r̶i̶n̶g̶ decimating Pink Floyd's Great Gig in the Sky, but I just didn't have the heart.)
