I'm afraid to look.  ;)

I've got WAY too many fave covers to narrow down to a handful. I'll just wait to be surprised tomorrow

she used Devo's 'Satisfaction' as her video clip. That's what I would have chosen first, but I don't care what she picks.  I trust her.  After all, she's a professional.

and sure enuf, Devo leads off. AL likes covers that reinvent the orig, she says. And that's a *good* thing, I says.

Hey AL: since we're getting reinvented versions, mostly, "Copy cats" is the least-accurate desciption imaginable, actually. I suspect a suit came up with that.

Who's doing Victoria?  NTM, but I'd say this version is pretty similar to the Kinks version.

I wonder if we'll hear any Pat Boone today.  That does take us pretty far into hit from hell territory, but I'd still enjoy "Enter Sandman".  ;)

dunno who did "Victoria".  VHM Annie Lennox's "Train in vain", tho' I'd've preferred Dwight Yoakam's.

ditto -- and it certainly fits the "reinvented" meme.

Turns out that was The Fall doing The Kinks.

VHM JJ covering the Beatles, but it's a KFOG staple and I'm still waiting for something to knock my socks off.

The funny thing to me is I feel like this version is very much what the Beatles had in mind when they did the song.  Kind of a boozy piano bar lament.
