Musical offence: Celine Dion's cover version of the AC/DC track You Shook Me All Night Long has been voted the worst

It hardly bears thinking about. Or, heaven forbid, singing along with.

Celine Dion's version of AC/DC's You Shook Me All Night Long has been voted the world's worst cover song.

Dion, 40, has never released the song as a single. Perhaps after performing the 'musical offence' at a Las Vegas concert six years ago, she didn't dare.

Her interpretation of the Australian hard rock hit was enough to see her top the chart of shame published by magazine Total Guitar.

A Sugababes and Girls Aloud version of Walk This Way - a huge hit for Aerosmith and rappers Run DMC - came second.

Westlife's 1999 cover of the ballad More Than Words by rock duo Extreme limped in at third.

Will Young's cover of The Doors' Light My Fire, which reached Number One in 2002, and an easy listening arrangement of Oasis's Wonderwall by The Mike Flowers Pops completes the top five.

But it wasn't all sour notes. The magazine also published a list of what it says are the best cover versions.

Jimi Hendrix's classic take on Bob Dylan's All Along the Watchtower topped the list, followed by The Beatles' rendition of Twist and Shout, first recorded by the Top Notes.

The Guns 'N' Roses version of the Wings' song Live and Let Die, Nirvana's cover of The Man Who Sold the World by David Bowie, and Muse's Feeling Good, originally by Nina Simone, are also in the top five.

Total Guitar editor Stephen Lawson said: 'Cover versions have never been bigger.

'It's good to see that Hendrix still is Number One. Celine Dion covering AC/DC is sacrilege.'
