Okay, I’m a cover loving mofo, granted. Frankly I love it when people take songs and rip them completely out of their genre and thus make them the same, but different. If you are confused as to what I mean, look into a band called “Me First and the Gimme Gimmes”. Okay enough of that, I posted the video of Mat Weddle playing “Hey Ya” earlier and it seems other people enjoy this kind of thing as well.

As a follow up I am posting one of my all time favorite covers. Scottish band “Travis” performing “Hit Me Baby One More Time” live…. truely an awesome undertaking!

ENJOY!

    I too enjoy a good cover. There is this guy who does all lounge style covers of songs. I think his name is Richard Cheese, but it is really funny.

  2. You should definetely check out the Punkles (punk + Beattles) they rock. Also if you haven’t heard Nina Gordon’s cover of straight out of Compton you are definetely missing out.

    Wow, does this sound like the Eagles to anyone else?

  4. Sweet. I, too, love a good cover. I can’t get over Weddle’s Hey Ya. I keep listening to it over again and again.
