Dug it... love it... not a bad cover at all.
It's been a while I think since a drummer had the lead in vocals... I mean a real lead not just the occasional song or three.
Glad to see Rock getting back to where it needs to be.
Original just for old times sake... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lMLnDuzgkjo&NR=1
Black oak Arkansas also did this song
For some reason, the YouTube link doesn't lead to the song for this poor Limey 
.
However, from the front-end it took me too I did find this, which made me smile (as both a gamer and a musician who likes the occasional 'funny' song):

I like dat song. It's like coffee only it doesn't give me heartburn.
After a bit of searching (not that hard I admit ) I found the Spiderbait cover ... and I found it ... well ...
... sorry, chaps and chapesses, but the original is an order of magnitude better.
Mind you, I could never successfully dance to it {that might have had something to so with the fact that I tended to be pretty darned drunk whenever I tried :lol:}

Also, I have found what a pleasure it can be just to link-surf around YouTube sometimes, with the odd adjuncts that you can get.
It lead me to some old vids of Mountain and Rare Earth, which were great and also to a great sadness when I found out that Farrah Fawcett is so very ill (as for many men my age she is an icon of beauty from my youth).

Continuing the link-fest lead me to:

Ah, the ever-so Demi Moore. High heels, martial arts, twin Desert Eagles and a Shelby Cobra :sigh: (yes, I know she's the bad girl of the piece but still ... ).

Wasn't it Ram Jam?

The song's been around forever, but yes, Ram Jam made it a hit in this form back in the 1970's. I loved it. This one is even better, I think. And I usually don't care for covers of classics like this.
