Today starts a new 5 song theme called Cover Crazy. I am enamored by covers. No song should be done by just one band alone. A song is met to be resung, replayed, modified, taken in and made your own. To start this thread, it's the Dollyrots. I posted about them way back as their song "Because I'm Awesome" is my kids' personal theme song. But I'm not one to leave a band as a one-hit wonder, so I sought out other songs. What do I find? I find a cover of a song that I've already heard covered..."Brand New Key". Rasputina, one of my top 3 favorite bands of all time, has a killer version of Melanie's classic roller skating song. Yes, roller skating. Melanie swears there's no sexual innuendo in the song. Bull, i say. That song is sexual awakening. That song is I've got this new sexual desire and you've got bits I wanna jump on. But Dollyrots don't play up that part. Dollyrots are big on the fun as this very odd recording will show:
