I hated Hugo Montenegro's cover of The Good The Bad & The Ugly, it was a hit in the UK, I think it got further up the charts than Morricone's original. A lot of the time the majority don't get it right.

Of all film themes, the one I believe has been murdered most often is Lara's Theme from DOCTOR ZHIVAGO. The list is endless. As another example, here's Ray Conniff's disco version.

Eh. It’s got a beat and you can dance to it.
This is quite good compared to another cover of this - at least it's not a case of Halt! Hugo's there.
No disrespect to Mr M - some of his own compositions are sensational.
Jeannie springs to mind - shame he couldn't bottle that magic and put it into his cover versions

Technically speaking, it's a re-mix of the original version and not a cover version.
