What song are you most glad William Shatner never covered?
I haven't gone through the whole list of all songs ever made, but I happened to catch Tori Amos's "Cornflake Girl" on the radio, and I had one of those Christopher Walken in Dead Zone style visions that left me shooken to my core. Just imagine it.

Never... was a cornflake... girl
Thought that was a good... solution?
Hanging out... with those raisin girls
Shes gone... to the other side!
Givin us a YO... heave ho
Things... are getting kind of gross
And I go at sleepy time
This isn't really happening

You... bet your life it is
You bet... your life it is
You bet your... life it is?

Peel out...
the watchword...
just...
peel out the watchword

9. I'm afraid that if I name it...
...it'll turn out that he actually did cover it. I prefer the quantum state of uncertainty.

36. There's an infomercial on AFRTS I see almost everyday...
...that has that song playing in the background. It's been an earworm for me for, oh, the past 6 months. Perhaps he could kill it enought to get it out of my head!

34. I Will Always Love You.
Originally crooned by Dolly Parton in "The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas" and then covered by Whitney Houston in "The Bodyguard".

Shatner should never cover this song.
