This is a hard question for me to answer.

I've seen and heard some very bad ones but i don't remember them because i move on quick after a couple of notes. :D
 
The Pearl Jam remake of Last Kiss. Dear God I hate this song:

And they still play it on the radio occasionally.
 
I don't know about worst cover - there are Thousands of them. But the worst Original version, with 2 Great covers has to be "Without You" by Badfinger. Both the Nilsson and Mariah Carey covers are amazing. ;)

I like Faith Hill as much as the next person from MS, but she butchered Janis's song...

Technically not a "cover" but Kid Rock sampling "Werewolves of London" in whatever that lame-assed song was...Can hear Warren Zevon turning over in his grave.
