Here's a fun one, a little known Australian group recorded the well known "Double Shot of My Baby's Love" (Swinging Medallions and they do a version with Springsteen on youtube, so apparently he likes it, that video is in one of the Carolinas by the way, he said he'd boycott NC which I disagree with but oh well).

Fun fact about the Cockroaches: two of their members, Anthony Field (lead singer) and Jeff Fatt (the drummer) had a bit more success with their next band...

...a little worldwide children's entertainment phenomenon known as The Wiggles.

Hurt, originally done by nine inch nails, covered by Johnny Cash

Tainted love -covered by Marilyn Manson
and I'm not going to post the link, it's got bare boobs in it, and it's not hard to find on you tube.  Interesting fact, the guy Manson shoves out of the doorway is the current Captain America.

Money (That's what I want) The Babys did it best, Barrett Strong did it first. Many others including The Trashmen, Stones, Beatles, great White and Levon Helm did it well

Take the "s" out of the https.  That's it.

Or..remove everything before the www.   :beer:

But at a certain point we hit the dreaded "(Embedding disabled, limit reached)"  and we start a part 3!!!!

The Youtube preview is disabled on this page and on Part I..... Try doing the youtube embedding and future posting on part III of this thread.

That is all.

Different tastes everyone has; the Canadian group (if I missed that in the other thread), The Band wrote "The Night They Drove Ol' Dixie Down" but I really like the Joan Baez version and she of course, had a hit with it.

One can look for them oneself.
