"Fall Out Boy Beat It

I don't know if you should be slapped or pitied. You list Wall of Voodoo and Social Distortion along with the Disney plastic dead LA too fat for their look Fall Out Boy? Fall Out Boy? Death to plastic LA rock. May it burn in hell.

customerjon @gmail.com is where information happens.

From the soundtrack to "The Jerky Boys," Tom Jones does justice to Lenny Kravitz's "Are You Gonna Go My Way."

Oh! This one just came over my iPod: "El Paso," the Marty Robbins tune reworked by the Old 97s. Awesome stuff.

Clapton covered it too, but his version was lame compared to Jimi's.

Stevie Ray's cover IMO is the best of the lot but Jimi's shines brightly as well.

The Corrs (and it has nothing to do with how beautiful she is)

"When you stop trading time for money, and spending money to eat up time, you opt out of a perpetual cycle that is keeping you basically imprisoned in a corporate system."

"Let's Stick Together"- originally done by Wilbert Harrison, later covered by Canned Heat and again by Brian Ferry. But my favorite cover is by KT Tunstall on a BBC Radio 1 compilation. It kicks ass!

Paul Anka sings Smells Like Teen Spirit
