I’ve come to the conclusion that Aerosmith are part of what I call “Greatest Hits Bands.” Meaning that they’ve got some really great songs but, their albums as a whole just aren’t “that” good. Since I started this new feature, I’ve got a huge list of great times a song was used in a film and Aerosmith’s “Sweet Emotion” during the opening credits of the very awesome Dazed and Confused is perfect.

Worst Cover Songs: Papa Roach (Aerosmith)- Sweet Emotion

Recently while watching Dazed & Confused for the umpteenth hundreth time, and I had a flashback to the early 2000’s when MTV did one of their “Icon” shows dedicated to Aerosmith. During that broadcast one of the worst renditions of a great song was performed by Papa Roach. Their version of “Sweet Emotion” will forever be put next to Celine Dion’s  version of ACDC’s “You Shook Me All Night Long.”
