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:

    “When I am dead, my dearest, Sing no sad songs for me;
    Plant thou no roses at my head, Nor shady cypress tree:
    Be the green grass above me With showers and dewdrops wet;
    And if thou wilt, remember, And if thou wilt, forget.”
    —Christina Georgina Rossetti (1830–1894)

    “When the light was extinguished,
    She covered me warm,
    And she prayed to the angels
    To keep me from harm—”
    —Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849)

    “Citizen’s Band radio renders one accessible to a wide variety of people from all walks of life. It should not be forgotten that all walks of life include conceptual artists, dry cleaners, and living poets.”
    —Fran Lebowitz (b. 1950)
