When I first started using Google Chrome, I thought it was the sh*t. Completely blew Firefox out of the water. Then something happened and it all went to sh*t. It might have something to do with all the porn I downloaded. Shoulda searched incognito I guess. Anyway, I might give GC another chance after seeing this crowdsourced music video of Johnny Cash’s last recording. To make it, each fan illustrated their own frame of the video. Check it out then get an exclusive Johnny Cash theme after the jump.

The Smoking Gun released Pauly D’s tour rider recently and it might open some eyes. By no means is this the most ridiculous tour rider, and given Pauly D’s unbelievable attention to detail it’s almost to be expected but it brings to mind other historically absurd requests and demands from the music industry’s most peculiar and fickle artists. See our list then check out the Jersey Shore star’s demands after the jump.

Sniff sniff. What smells like a cheap knock-off of teen spirit? NME has the answer. A few months back they released the results of a poll, which asked readers to vote for the best and worst cover songs of all-time. No one knows why some artists attempt to cover songs that make our ears hurt. Then there are covers that have us feeling good. Either way, here are the 10 best and worst cover songs of all-time.

We’ve been pretty nostalgic here at COED lately. Earlier today, we showed you candid pics from the 61st and 62nd Academy Awards. In early February, we showed you yearbook photos of a former fat kid turned skinny rock star comedian and a beautiful blonde who went from hoodies to hot hand bras. Now, we turn our attention to the music industry with yearbook photos of 41 famous “rock stars”. While you may notice not everyone in our gallery can be categorized as “rock”, you have to admit they underwent a “rock star” transformation. Can you guess the identities without looking at the captions? See the pics after the jump!

The Hollywood celebrity is an odd species that subsists largely on a steady diet of illegally obtained prescription drugs and ZICO water. Unlike their sister-species, the human, they rarely make decisions without first consulting their manager, agent, and their PR rep. Therefore it’s extremely rare to see them in their natural habitat, demonstrating typical “human-like” behaviors, such as eating solid food, wearing no make-up, and pissing off their fan base by acting normal. We’ve captured some extremely rare never-before-seen footage of the most powerful celebrities, including their current Queen Lady Gaga, flicking off the cameras at a recent Mets game.

COED loves rock ‘n’ roll covers – anything that can light our fire, shake us all night long, and give us faith. No one knows w… Click to read more

With a Tenacious D-type ridiculousness, Electric 6 made me laugh hysterically the moment that I first heard them. Thankfully for all of us though, they are actually good at playing their instruments. That doesn’t necessarily negate their ridiculousness, but I firmly believe that everyone needs a little bit of ridiculousness here and there.
