'Hallelujah', which was originally written and recorded by Leonard Cohen, was named the 10th worst cover in a poll by Churchill Insurance.
Despite selling over a million copies and becoming the top-selling song of 2008, Burke's version of the song has met with some criticism.
William Shatner's interpretation of The Beatles' 'Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds' topped the list of the worst remakes, while Britney Spears came second with 'I Love Rock 'N' Roll'.
Former Pop Idol runner-up Gareth Gates featured twice in the list, which also included fellow contestant Rik Waller.
The Top 10 worst cover versions were:
1. William Shatner: 'Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds'
2. Britney Spears: 'I Love Rock 'N' Roll'
3. Gareth Gates: 'Spirit In The Sky'
4. Kelly Osbourne: 'Papa Don't Preach'
5. Terry Wogan: 'The Floral Dance'
6. Madonna: 'American Pie'
7. Gareth Gates: 'Unchained Melody'
8. Rolf Harris: 'Stairway To Heaven'
9. Rik Waller: 'I Will Always Love You'
10. Alexandra Burke: 'Hallelujah'
