On a side note I rarely play any of these at gigs...
...and yes, I do have the originals for most(if not all)of these songs I've listed.
I've played the Rob Zombie/Lionel Richie/Trina version of Brickhouse and Frickin' A's version of Jessie's Girl...a lot. And surprisingly get away with it everytime!
I'm amazed that somebody knows/likes Authority Zero's "Mexican Radio"!!! It rocks!!!!
