I hate the Imagine cover by A Perfect Circle.

Howard actually has Korn in studio performing it though. I just heard it for the first time just now.

Do you guys like happy sounding songs like Britney Spears does, or what? I guess PC should have made the cover sound exactly like the original, would that be better? (would be boring if ya ask me)

I hate BS. I guess I just don't like the PC version because the Lennon song was very uplifting lyrically and it just doesn't sound right the way PC does it. It's like playing a requiem at a wedding.

They did a terrible cover. One of the worst covers ever, up there with Britney Spears - I love rock n' roll and Britney Spears - Satisfaction.

I went to their concert in Columbus this summer and their concert in Cleveland last Sunday and they played it at both concerts. The crowd goes crazy when they do... they also go crazy when they play the Metallica - One cover...

Korn makes me sick. They're so far gone from what they were when they began as a band. How could they not know that covering a Floyd song is wrong? Isn't that written somewhere?

*checks rock and roll rule book*

Yep, right here on page 352, right below "If you're going to put an album out that's against something (a war, a politician, etc.), it has to be original material and not covers of original material about a similar situation."

Cover songs that sound nearly exactly the same as the original suck hard always.

It's a bit of a crap cover. I liked the one that came out a few years ago better... the "Class of 2000" version or whatever.

Like Aerosmith's cover of "Come Together?"

Right, whereas Shinehead's version of Come Together rocks!

Well... I wouldn't go that far. Korn does suck, and this album from APC sucks, but their first two are awesome. I can't write off anything Maynard does just because they put out one bad album.

I only caught the end unfortunately. Say what you want about Korn but they do have some talent and creativity. At least they aren't another cookie cutter punk band or same old crap teeny bopper singer. I wouldn't mind seeing them live.

They aren't? Recent song titles:

Let's Do This Now
Y'all Want a Single
Break Some Off
Let's Get This Party Started

C'mon. Seriously.

These guys need to lay off the covers.

First Cameo, now the Floyd? Do they have no soul?
