Here's a fun one to play. Basically, you guess the original band of a song that's been cover by another band, Example:

Rage Against the Machine - In my eyes

The answer is: Minor Threat. Because the were the original Band who performed it on a album.

So like, one rule here. No songs to open to debate-stuff like white christmas or old blues songs like "Where did you sleep last night", since they have no definable origin.

Whoever guesses the song puts up the next Band & covered song.

If you don't get if at first, Confused watch awhile and you'll catch on...

Alright, I'll start out with an easy one:

Dead Kennedys - Viva Las Vegas
"Nulla tenaci invia est via"

The music industry is a cruel and shallow money trench where thieves and pimps run free, and good men die like dogs. There's also a negative side.

You'd think so, wouldn't you ;)

The Soft Cell version is, surprisingly obscurely enough, a cover.
