I’m a Phish fan, so I am well acquainted with loving bad songs.

Back in the day, I would collect as many REM live bootlegs that I could get my hands on. There was this one album where the band was clearly very drunk and they played a cover of Hootenanny.

I don’t remember the name of the album or in what city it was recorded, but it was gloriously awful. I would listen to it every so often and bask in the knowledge that my idols were human, in all their sloppy attempts at covering an already bad song…they clearly were having a lot of fun which made it fun for me.
