Songs most people probably don't realize are covers (original artists noted parenthetically):
'I Love Rock And Roll' - Joan Jett (The Arrows)
'Nothing Compares 2 U' - Sinead O'Connor (The Family)
'Blinded By The Light' - Mannfred Mann (Springsteen)
'Time Is On My Side' - Rolling Stones (Irma Thomas)
'Girls Just Wanna Have Fun' - Cyndi Lauper (Robert Hazard)
'Hey Joe' -Jimi Hendrix (The Leaves)
In each case, I prefer the cover.

I'll just throw this one in there.
Oops sorry.
My threads are breeding. There are two that look the same. How did that happen?
One of them got put on hold in the spam filter.
