Subject: Korn covers Cameo's "Word Up"

This song should be about six billion times worse than it actually is.

Does the world need another version of Word Up? Gun had already covered it in the 90s. ;D

Just so long as they wear a scarlet codpiece, it'll work out :D

IMO, the original was OK. Though "Candy" is much better.
Haven't heard the cover, but know it's bad since I don't care for Korn. :P

Don't know how well you'll remember personally, Bobby, but do you remember the version over here from Mel (then Gulzar, now Brown, former Spice girl) and her then-husband Jimmy? Scary stuff. It can't be worse than that, surely?

I think I do, Bobo. I'd forgotten about that! LOL. Uninspiring stuff I must say . . . ::)
I agree with MrGazpacho, bring on the codpieces! ;D

Korn is by far the best version I have heard. Mel B should be strung up for her attempt!
In all fairness it is an awful song!

Remember the video for Basement Jaxx's Where's Your Head At? With freaky human faces superimposed on top of monkeys in a scientific lab?
This is exactly the same, except with the faces superimposed on dogs and possibly even a hyena. Then they all go to a strip club and ogle girls' breasts. ::)
Edit: I really am not making up the bit about the strip club. Now that I think about it, The Baxement Jaxx video also had dogs with human faces as well...

Sorry, I was unclear. "Rage" is a weekend music video TV program on the Australian Broadcasting Commission...

Did the swear filter just catch one of your words? Or is "Kerrng" a concept which you would like to descibe to us? ???

I meant Kerrang. It is a TV station here. And a radio station and a magazine. Mostly for rock fans. I apologise for my spelling, I have a hangover ???
