karaoke cover

A lame and seemingly pointless cover-version of a song that contributes nothing to the original, nor lends anything artistically unique on the part of the covering musician, but sounds like someone merely performing a karaoke rendition of the original work.

Not to be confused with really funny-bad crimes against art, such as William Shatner's cover of the Beatles' "Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds."
"Have you heard Blake Shelton's version of Michael Buble's 'Home'? What a karaoke cover!"

Rally Karaoke Guy

Kevin Millar, the Red Sox first baseman, as he has been called since the discovery of an embarassing high school video of him singing "Born in the U.S.A." by Bruce Springsteen. The video has been played late in close games on Fenway Park's video boards to spur on Red Sox rallies, like the Rally Monkey for the Anaheim Angels.
