This next cover is actually two versions of the same song, "The Whole of the Moon" by the Waterboys. This song I used to hear on a local easy listening station on my ride home from work. They played it at the same time every day, Monday through Friday. Every time I hear it, it reminds me of a lot of the great people I worked with at that time. There's the original version on YouTube, plus a version the band made many years later. Both are really good, but these covers add a little bit of uniqueness to the tune. It's hard to say which is the better of the two, so I play both of them.

This next tune is a cover of a pretty well-known one-hit wonder by OMC, "How Bizarre." I really like the trumpet and the acoustic guitar in this one. Living here in South Carolina, I can really relate to "in the hot, hot sun"!

This next tune is a cover of Gloria Gaynor's "I Will Survive"—and yes, it did! This band took this song and turned it upside down. Great lead guitar, except I would have worn at least sergeant stripes, and the lead singer kind of looks like the golfer Scottie Scheffler. It also has some excellent surprise trumpet in it.

The next cover is another one-hit wonder—or maybe two-hit wonder—of the 1980s. It's "Breakout" by Swing Out Sister. This cover is really good, and the video is excellent!
