Joel Johnson twittered<\/a>: “Have an extra copy of @jonathancoulton<\/a>‘s “Best. Concert. Ever.” CD & DVD. Will send to the person who records worst JoCo cover in 30 secnds.”<\/p>\n

Now I don’t know who he is and I already have the live album he’s giving away. But the challenge sparked my interest. I soon decided to ruin everything by covering “You Ruined Everything”. Falsetto voice meets flutes. There you go.<\/p>\n

But while I was setting up my recording gear, I realized that I could try to rush through “Big Dick Farts a Polka” easily. Three Chords, some melodica, a blistered thumb. I also wanted to do a black metal cover of “Skullcrusher Mountain”, but I figured there are already too many bad cover versions out there. Now, while listening to the songs below, please keep in mind that Jonathan Coulton<\/a> is actually a very good artist; it’s me who ruins everything.<\/p>\n

Download “Big Dick Farts a Polka”: mp3<\/a> (more music<\/a>)<\/p>\n

Download “I Ruined Everything”: mp3<\/a> (more music<\/a>)<\/p>\n

You should know how great things were before I
\nCame along, singing out of tune
\nOnce this perfect song was gone I knew
\nI ruined everything in the worsest way<\/strong><\/p>\n
