Because the original needed to be turned into elevator muzak. :yh_rotfl

What started this off was an episode of Fringe where I thought they had jokingly turned this song into elevator music and someone at the show's forum commented about the Paul Anka cover. What's next, AC/DC's Back in Black?

Nah, that's Tony Bennet. Anka would more likely sing Living on a Prayer by Bon Jovi.

eta: I'd originally written Pat Benatar's Hot Job in the City, but I could so see Anka doing that one.

Nice thread. Here's Glen Campbell singing the Foo Fighters

Just to wake you from your Elevator nightmare, here's Snuff's raucous version of the Shake n Vac commercial

I'm surprised, I liked both of those. The Glenn Campbell cover would have sounded sort of melancholy if the musicians had been playing a little slower on acoustic guitars.

I agree with that one Snooze, Glen Campbell actually makes it his own and puts feeling into the song, which has great words.

Here he is again covering Green Day

I just found out that Susan Boyle did a cover of Depeche Mode's Enjoy the Silence. Blasphemy!

That should be against the law. Hope she got arrested.

Whatever next?...Classical music to the Sex Pistols?...
