And thinking about it, there's a terrible version of "All Tomorrows Parties" that he sings on too.

I'll change it to Nick Cave plus guest = good, Nick Cave as guest = bad. Unless he's guesting with Die Haut, in which case it's good again.

Anthrax and Public Enemy "Bring The Noise" - "Flav, tell us what time is it!", "Yo Chuck, I'm sayin' it's time to do a pisspoor version of our killer tune with those wack honky mofos Anthrax.", "That's right, Flav".

I had wished the Bonnie Prince Billy/Tortoise collab would have been better as well as Z Rock Hawaii(Ween/Boredoms). Not that they were bad. Boris- Rainbow with the guitarist from Ghost was great and how about Loose Fur and Jim's contributions to Sonic Youth. I'm also looking foward to the Brian Eno, Herby Hancock, Squarepusher collaboration. So I guess a lot suck. but just as many can be good.

Paul McCartney, Paul Weller and Noel Gallagher "Come Together" - doing this for charidee should in no way excuse the dadrockesque murdering of this Beatles tune. Hearing Paul Weller grunt and exhort his way through this reminds one not so much of Otis Redding, but of Arthur Mullard. And what was Macca doing? I hope Yoko rang the Macster up and gave him a right bollocking for this.

Yeah, but that tune is horrid, anyway.

Gary Moore and Andrew Eldritch - "After The War" - aimless 80's rawk widdling from the usually quite reliable Mr Moore, all topped off with the baritone garglings of Baron Von Eldritch. Apparently Eldritch wanted the video for this to be "full of warplanes". Silly shortarsed cnut.
