That’s a boring cover but the original song is so stellar that it’s still better than whatever that other thing is

I'm not voting for any cover unless it brings something new to the table, and none of these do. Else we might as well skip to the 80s hits tourney.

I'll vote for the Ataris cause the original is pretty good and they don't ruin it.

Kinda bummed we didn't get San Dimas High School Football Rules is this thing though. it might be the most pop punk of all the pop punk songs. The Rickest Rick if you will.

I considered it but seemed too obscure. That's such a baddddd songgggg though!

"I swear I'd treat you like a queen" :throwup:

Also, something happened between those two music videos, because that lead singer guy looks and sounds like a completely different prson

Mike Campbell wrote it and showed the demo to Tom Petty, but Petty didn't think it would fit on Southern Accents. So Campbell gave it to Don Henley...who did his best with it until the Ataris could come along and work their magic. Or something like that.

:thumbsup: Thanks for the reminder. That sounds familiar but I’m not sure that I’ve heard that before. I think it worked out pretty well for everyone involved.
