Alexandra Burke's 'Hallelujah' is '10 Worst Cover Version' All Time

New research by Churchill Insurance shows that Alexandra Burke's version of 'Hallelujah' comes tenth on the list of worst cover versions of all time.

Matt Owen, spokesperson for Churchill, says: "Cover versions can provoke huge debate and what are considered to be bad covers for some, may be great versions for others.

"Even many of our so-called worst cover versions ever, and the people fronting them, have had great success."

"It's interesting to see that half of the worst cover versions have been sung by budding popstars coming through on reality TV programmes."
Churchill Insurance commissioned the research to mark the launch of a new TV advertisement featuring Rolf Harris and the iconic nodding dog.

The Churchill Insurance worst cover versions top ten:

1. Lucy in the sky with diamonds - William Shatner
2. I love rock 'n' roll - Britney Spears
3. Spirit in the sky - Gareth Gates
4. Papa don't preach - Kelly Osbourne
5. The floral dance - Terry Wogan
6. American pie - Madonna
