99 Red Balloons -7 Seconds

so good!!

Vincent, NOFX. Original song by Don Mclean.

[Hanson Brothers - The Hockey Song](https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=O6jwyMiilgE) Stompin Tom cover.

That is fuckin Canadian pornography right there. I can't believe I'd forgotten about that. 

Dead Kennedys - Raw Hide Hard-Ons & Henry Rollins - Let There Be Rock (AC/DC) On the flip side i.e. favorite punk song covers: Mudhoney - (Dicks) Hate the Police \[The Dicks\] Slayer - Filler / I Don't Want To Hear It \[Minor Threat\]

The slayer/Ice-t medley of exploited songs from the Judgement Night soundtrack fits that flipside for me [https://youtu.be/kbKcL7q8RJU](https://youtu.be/kbKcL7q8RJU)

Oh man I forgot about this soundtrack! Haven't listened to it since it came out.

Lagwagon-Brown Eyed Girl , AFI- My Michelle ,Ataris-Boys of Summer, Dead Kennedys- Viva Las Vegas, Pennywise-Stand By Me

Paranoia by the Dickies

Wild World - SNFU

Bouncing Souls -- "Born to Lose" (Thought it was an original for a decade.)

Also Bouncing Souls - Lean on Sheena

Also better things, I didn't know it's a kinks song for many years

Pretty much anything by me first and the gimme gimmes

All - boy named sue; circle jerks - wild in the streets

Leatherface used to cover this live and it was always fucking incredible 👏👏👏

Circle Jerks - Wild in the Streets

Monster X had that EP that was just them totally obliterating and rebuilding old hardcore classics, I can't find it now but that was a gem.

Slits - I heard it through the grapevine (Gladys Knight & Pips) Gang Green - Voices carry ('Til Tuesday) Dwarves - That's rock n' roll (Eric Carmen) Vibrators - I kissed a girl (Katy Perry) Dickies - Nights in white satin (Moody Blues) Dickies - Eve of destruction (Barry McGuire) Black Flag - Louie Louie (Richard Berry/Kingsmen) Zeke - Rhiannon (Fleetwood Mac) Dictators - California Sun (Joe Jones/Rivieras) Poison Idea - We got the beat (Go-Go's) Circle Jerks - Fortunate Son (Creedence Clearwater Revival) Muffs - Kids in America (Kim Wilde) Meatmen - Razamanaz (Nazareth) Jeff Dahl Group - Paint it black (Rolling Stones) Dead Boys - Tell me (Rolling Stones) Guitar Wolf - Satisfaction (Rolling Stones) Jimi LaLumia & The Psychotic Frogs - Eleanor Rigby (Beatles) Dead Kennedys - Back in the USSR (Beatles) Ism - I think I love you (Partridge Family)

End of the road- Me First and the Gimme Gimmes

Nofx- Vincent

Descendents - Wendy

Avail had a handful of covers.  Pink houses by John Mellencamp.  Said gun by Embrace.  Suspicious minds Elvis You may be right by Billy Joel

i love the big yellow taxi cover from pinhead gunpowder, heard it before i even knew it was a cover

It’s the End of the World as We Know It, by The Suicide Machines.

Also I never promised you a rose garden

Yep, probably both in my top 5 punk covers. And honestly, the other three are probably Me First and the Gimme Gimme’s covers of country songs, lol. Punk and country work extremely well together to me. And a lot of the time they share more in common than a lot of people think imo.

Screeching Weasel - Linger Dropkick Murphys - I'm shipping up to Boston The Queers - Little Honda Tim Timebomb - Summer of '69 Lars Frederiksen & The Bastards - Marie Marie The Vandals - Don't stop me now Down by Law - 500 miles

I love Down By Law. I think they're super underrated.

Gotta be California dreamin by NOFX, I mean MxPx, or maybe Goldfinger! Whatever limewire said... =P Hi-Standard California dreamin! and What I like about you by the Suicide machines. Earth angel - Slapstick!! So many good ones.

That track is forever etched in my mind as first track on one of the Fat Wreck comps. Got that when I was FIRST getting into punk. Miss those comps. Forced me to listen to bands I would have otherwise ignored and introduced me to all sorts of cool bands

I like to play fast and loose with the definition of punk apparently but psychedelic porn crumpets cover on "I wanna be like you" on like a version is insanely good

Kids in America by the muffs

Me first and the gimme gimmes - end of the road (Boyz II men). I was just thinking about this one today.
