― dave q (listerine), Tuesday, 5 April 2005 00:59 (twenty-one years ago)

The Led Zep cover at the end of Nuclear Assault's Survive is what keeps it from rivaling Reign In Blood and Arise as my favorite hardcore-metal records of all-time.

Covers were an epidemic in metal around 1988.

― Johnny Badlees (crispssssss), Tuesday, 5 April 2005 01:02 (twenty-one years ago)

Another Yo La Tengo:

― Curious George (1/6 Scale Model) (Rock Hardy), Tuesday, 5 April 2005 01:12 (twenty-one years ago)

Another Yo La Tengo: I Can Hear the Heart Beating As One — "My Little Corner of the World". The Marie Osmond version can be found at http://www.terrificmusic.com/index_long.html as "In My Little Corner of the World." Makes me want to stick chopsticks through my eardrums. Still googling — it might have been done even earlier by Anita Bryant, not sure yet.

― Curious George (1/6 Scale Model) (Rock Hardy), Tuesday, 5 April 2005 01:13 (twenty-one years ago)

And Fakebook.

― Johnny Badlees (crispssssss), Tuesday, 5 April 2005 01:15 (twenty-one years ago)

― fact checking cuz (fcc), Tuesday, 5 April 2005 01:22 (twenty-one years ago)

I wish it were easier to tell when someone is joking o'er the internet.

― Johnny Badlees (crispssssss), Tuesday, 5 April 2005 01:24 (twenty-one years ago)

Hmm, the Anita Bryant version is actually pretty decent, from the :30 clip I found.

― Curious George (1/6 Scale Model) (Rock Hardy), Tuesday, 5 April 2005 01:25 (twenty-one years ago)

Faith no More: Angel Dust

― Nag! Nag! Nag! (Nag! Nag! Nag!), Tuesday, 5 April 2005 02:46 (twenty-one years ago)

Oh, plus Luna's Penthouse ("Bonnie et Clyde"), even though it's not necessarily listed.

― Nag! Nag! Nag! (Nag! Nag! Nag!), Tuesday, 5 April 2005 02:52 (twenty-one years ago)

Blondie, Autoamerican. Last track is 'Follow Me' from the musical Camelot.

― Daniel Peterson (polkaholic), Tuesday, 5 April 2005 14:43 (twenty-one years ago)

Dammit, Alfred, you thought of the Bowie before I did.

Nico - The End (ends not with "The End" confusingly enough but with "Das Lied der Deutschen" (that's "Deutschland uber alles" as far as the rest of us are concerned))

― Dadaismus (Dada), Tuesday, 5 April 2005 16:04 (twenty-one years ago)

"Waltzing Matilda" may be traditional, but "And the Band Played Waltzing Matilda" most definitely is not. It's by Eric Bogle.

― Curious George (1/6 Scale Model) (Rock Hardy), Tuesday, 5 April 2005 16:14 (twenty-one years ago)

Evol

The Band-Hang Up My Rock'n'Roll Shoes (Rock of Ages)
Aretha Franklin-Why I Sing the Blues (Spirit In The Dark) and Border Song (Young, Gifted, and Black) probably several others.

― Doobie Keebler (Charles McCain), Tuesday, 5 April 2005 18:33 (twenty-one years ago)

I was going to mention that, but do bonus tracks count? "Bubblegum" wasn't on the original album — it ended with "Expressway/Crucifixion/Madonna Sean & Me." Speaking of which, I feel bad for anybody who hasn't enjoyed an hour-long blissout session with the lock-groove on that song. (xpost)

― Curious George (1/6 Scale Model) (Rock Hardy), Tuesday, 5 April 2005 18:34 (twenty-one years ago)
