I’m a huge Adele fan, her first album ’21’ cradled me through my final year in school, so when she announced her comeback with ‘Hello’, I was ecstatic. It soon became the most played song on my playlist, but until the covers started flowing in; then barely hearing the word ‘Hello’ made me want to rip someone’s eyes out.
Maybe I’m a little to dramatic, but you have to admit that the more the covers you listen too, the more you grow to hate the song, and none of it is Adele’s fault. Poor Adele…

Not to downplay people who are in themselves exceptional artistes, I’m going to narrow down my list of ‘sucky’ covers to the top 5. So here goes…
1. Vic O – I do not think there’s anyone in the world who can do a worse cover, or rather, sing as worse as Vic O; and for smart asses who will say ‘But Vic O doesn’t sing, he raps…’, it’s all one and the same. He should be sentenced to life imprisonment with hard labour by Judge Jazzy for this crime against music and humanity.
