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:

    “Dylan is to me the perfect symbol of the anti-artist in our society. He is against everything—the last resort of someone who doesn’t really want to change the world.... Dylan’s songs accept the world as it is.”
    —Ewan MacColl (1915–1989)

    “The tracks of moose, more or less recent, to speak literally, covered every square rod on the sides of the mountain; and these animals are probably more numerous there now than ever before, being driven into this wilderness, from all sides, by the settlements.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “Unless we include a job as part of every citizen’s right to autonomy and personal fulfillment, women will continue to be vulnerable to someone else’s idea of what “need” is.”
    —Gloria Steinem (b. 1934)
