Get Ready to Laugh

This Celine Dion/Anastacia cover of AC/DC’s “You Shook Me All Night Long” has been voted the worst cover of all time by Total Guitar magazine.

Meredith Brooks accompanies on guitar.

I really wish Celine would try this as a ballad. That’s about the only way it could be funnier.

  • I actually didn’t think it was that bad. That Anastacia girl had a solid rocker voice, but Celine was not badass enough to pull it off. It was just awkward with her yelling “yeah girlfriend!” all the time. But I actually kind of enjoyed it, perhaps because I like that song. But they didn’t like butcher it too bad…I’ve definitely heard worse cover songs.

  • What’s best is the audience!!!! Especially the men. Losers.

    And at what point did the session musicians’ dreams die?

  • i think this is one of the most awkward things i had to watch, besides the miss teen usa (?) trying to explain why people couldn’t locate US on a map…

  • they did it in Divas Las Vegas
    and it is not new
    I figured it sounded strange
    but Celine was so enthusiastic about it
    that it turned out ummm…interesting to watch
    I don’t know if this is the same clip
    the one she even plays air guitar in

  • I loved it! I agree with Meg, it was a little awkward with Celine yelling “yeah girlfriend” all the time but I really loved it! :D:D

  • seriously what is her deal with doing air guitar?
    she did it on ELLEN too
    you look like a tool
    stop

  • i liked the cover itself..not the video, particularly but the song was well done.. you guys are just too eager to cut people up..

  • No, it sucks.

    I hate classic rock and I hate AC/DC (reminds me of high school waaaay too much) but some things shouldn’t be touched unless you can really add to it. If you are nothing but a chanteuse who sings power ballads, you should lay off the classics as you bring no feeling to it, just your annoying over the top voice.

    If they dared do that to my beloved Springsteen, I’d have to take a hit out on them.

  • …*blank stare*….

    seriously.

    They just murdered a hit. I couldn’t make it past Anastacia’s entrance, and her voice is more “rocker”, but they didn’t have what it takes to pull off a song like that…sadly…

    sadly, for us… (good laffs though! Celine trying to hard!! ..playing air guitar on her thigh! LOL…)

  • it wasnt so bad. it was a little embarrassing but so his maying a dinosaur. ive seen worse.

    but I agree with stef. golddigger with kanye. solid.

  • Angus Young just rolled over his grave. He’s not dead, you say? Well, he killed himself after listening to this.

  • The only good thing about that was Celine doing that Angus Young hopping thing – pretty funny. Why do people cover songs that are already good? Like when Madonna did American Pie – grrr….she should have been beaten good for that one, that was the worst cover ever.
