Rock Bottom Remainders - Songs Covered Include

Songs Covered Include

  • "Gloria"
  • "If the House is a Rockin'..."
  • "In the Midnight Hour" (The Rock Bottom Remainders performed this song during an appearance on The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson. Host Craig Ferguson—himself the best-selling author of Between the Bridge and the River—played the drums. Just before the performance, he joked that "the only reason wanted to write a book was so that he could play with this band." Dave Barry was also the first guest on the show.)
  • "Louie Louie" (Matt Groening claims he uses the "explicit" interpretation of the lyrics and Dave Barry claimed that it was so filthy that the U.S. Constitution should be amended to prohibit it.)
  • "Rockaway Beach"
  • "Stand By Me" Ben E King version
  • "These Boots Are Made for Walkin'"
  • "Wild Thing" (In one broadcast of Wait Wait... Don't Tell Me!, Barry revealed this song as a band inside joke, since Roy Blount always mistimes his single vocal line: "You move me.")
  • "You Ain't Goin' Nowhere"
  • "You Can't Judge a Book by its Cover"
  • "You May Be Right"

Famous quotes containing the words songs, covered and/or include:

    “And songs climb out of the flames of the near campfires,
    Pale, pastel things exquisite in their frailness
    With a note or two to indicate it isn’t lost,
    On them at least. The songs decorate our notion of the world
    And mark its limits, like a frieze of soap-bubbles.”
    —John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    “Every act of the man inscribes itself in the memories of his fellows, and in his own manners and face. The air is full of sounds; the sky, of tokens; the ground is all memoranda and signatures; and every object covered over with hints, which speak to the intelligent.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “I thought if war did not include killing, I’d like to see one every year.”
    —Maya Angelou (b. 1928)
