Jawbox did a cover of "Something Must Break" that was pretty awful, as I recall.

billy idol - " mony mony"
bow wow wow- "i want candy"
soft cell - "tainted love"

I think Bow Wow Wow's "I Want Candy" and Soft Cell's "Tainted Love" are great covers.  Do you mean they ruined them in the sense that they swallowed up the originals in the public imagination?  'Cos that's certainly true.  I agree with you about Billy Idol's "Mony Mony," though. 

I'll agree with you on Tainted Love. That was a perfect pop song that overshadowed a great original.  I'm not a fan of BowWowWow.
