Toss up between Kate Bush and Muppets. Muppets just won it for having a laugh the sacred Bohemian Rhapsody.

I wanted to pick something other than Nirvana here, because they were a long time ago (Nevermind is nearly twenty years old 8) ) and they don't 'speak' to me as they used to, but there's still no getting away from their unparalleled brilliance and Kurt's fatal charisma.

Also, it does seem a bit of an 'obvious' choice, but then I realised I was being stupid, and they really were just that fucking good.

Nirvana gets the vote.

Kate Bush - Hahahahahaha! Are you serious? Am I hearing a fucking reggae beat here? Jesus. God help me, but it's not bad, actually. Blimey, now there's a fiddle! This is certainly quite the.. melange of genres. Good stuff.
Nirvana - Impossible to hate, and I hate everything, so well done!
The Baseballs - Hands down the winner. No contest.
The Muppets - Go away you furry freaks, and take that turgid, mystifyingly popular piece of crap with you.
Travis - Blimey, that's actually borderline brilliant as well.

The Baseballs win it - brilliance on a level with Shat Man, to be honest. Kudos to the group as a whole, though - some really good choices here.

Being in this group sucks. I find myself struggling to choose more than any other, even with my own song in there.

Kate Bush

I do like Kate Bush. This is good too, though the slightly calypso beat throws me off!

Nirvana

A good cover, but I just heard it waaaaay too much back in the day. Having MTV as a teenager destroyed Nirvana for me, as they were the alternative equivalent of being the big new pop stars, and every third track they played was 'Teen Spirit'. I've not really recovered from it yet.

Baseballs

Despite sounding exactly like the Barenaked Ladies, this is great, and I like it a lot.

Muppets

Well, it's the muppets, which is yay. The song is okay too. Overall, a mixed yay.

Travis

Go away. This was the missing link between the cringeworthy Darius version and the cringeworthy Matt Cardle version. Stop copying pop artists, Travis, and go back to recording songs that repeat the same word over and over again.

Kate Bush or Baseballs? Hmmm...

Baseballs FTW!

To be fair to Travis, they did do their version of this song about a year before Darius did and about 10 years before Matt Cardle did. Still, it doesn't stop them being crap. Unlike the awesome Baseballs who collect my vote here.
