There are actually a few pretty good covers of some of their simpler songs. And groups of multiple people (who know what they're doing) seen to be ok at it. P!ATD did a pretty good covers of Bohrap and I've seen a good cover of '39 on YT. Then again, nothing could ever live up to basically any song by Queen (because they're great and I don't know a single human who hates them) but then again that's not a covers job.

Stewart was very anti-disco. But his record company convinced them they HAD to do a disco song. You can tell in their video they thought it was all crap. But after the money started rolling in then all bets were off. Stewart also said some bad things about various crooners. Yet that's what he's become. He's very much a hypocrite who took the money and ran. (Much like Genesis who actually admitted doing the same.)

Nope. Brendon Urie is a good singer, if he would just be himself. He wants to be a mix of Patrick Stump and the guy from The Killers so bad and everything he’s put out since that one guy left the band and stopped writing the songs for him, everything he does is so transparent and bad. And again, he can be a good singer, but he’s nothing super special and I really hate how people think he’s this amazing performer 🙄

OK, you're not great fans of metal, but keep in mind that some people are. I haven't heard Ashley Tisdale's version of "Never gonna give you up", but from what I could gather from the segment included in this video, it doesn't sound very different from Rick Astley's original. I agree with your opinion of t.A.T.u's version of "How soon is now?" - they really do sound like chipmunks. As a heterosexual male, I can't get mad at Britney for flaunting what she's got, but i will admit that "(I can't get no) satisfaction" is not my favourite song from "Oops! I did it again". I'm more partial to "Stronger".
