IMO Motley Crue do a much worse cover of Anarachy in the UK, simply becuase they replace all the UK stuff with USA stuff, and that just doesn't work for me.
Britney Spears' version of I Love Rock n Roll just sounds completely watered down, and her voice just doesn't have the badassery required for that song. Not to mention it was the centerpiece of her vehicle movie...all of that adds up to raping the song.
