The CoverUp

It's almost impossible how much ground we cover in this one. The pinnacle of Disco, a figurative horror show suitable for a literal horror show, metal redemption with a pair of purple socks as subtext. Stayin' Alive, originally by the Bee Gees, covered by Tiny Tim, and by Dweezil Zappa with Ozzy Osbourne.

Outro music is I Can See Clearly Now, by Donny Osmond, and it totally fits.

One of the most broadly beloved rap songs ever, a nerd with a banjo, and a feminist critique of societies pressures and beauty standards. Has to be Baby Got Back by Sir Mix-a-Lot, covered by Jonathan Coulton.

Outro music is Still Alive (from Portal's closing credits), also by Jonathan Coulton, featuring Sara Quin.

A happy song that's pretty sad, a lot of vocal excellence, mid-baritones, and accents. OK, just one accent, but it's a doozie. We look at 5 O'Clock World, originally by The Vogues, covered by Hal Ketchum, and by The Proclaimers.

Outro music is King Of The Road, also by The Proclaimers. Which we may get to on a future episode.

Paul McCartney was granted a license to kill ... this song. We look at Live and Let Die, originally by Wings, covered by Guns n Roses and by Duffy.

Outro music is a live version of Chicken Pot Pie, by Weird Al.

Punk perfection bookending a questionable origin story and some ... interesting performances. This week is Because The Night by the Patti Smith Group, covered by 10,000 Maniacs, by Bruce Springsteen, and jointly by Garbage and Screaming Females.

Outro Music is The Warrior by Patty Smyth, because we're brats.

The best of the rest of the British Invasion, the birth of modern metal guitar, and The Pit of Disco Despair. This week we look at Glad All Over, originally by The Dave Clark Five, covered by Quiet Riot and by Pet Shop Boys.

Outro music is Cum On Feel The Noize, by a post-Rhoads Quiet Riot.
