    And now for something totally different: Music Trivia Time

    Only two songs have made Billboard's top 40 singles chart in the decade of the 60's, 70's, 80's, and 90's.

    *Hint, they were both covers*

    What two songs are they?

    Good guesses, no.
    I was thinking Beatles myself.

    *Hint #1*
    Think 'Belfast'

    Everybody covered 'Everlasting Love'
    From U2 to Gloria Estefan to Robert Knight (the original, original) to Steve Ellis and Love Affair and everything in-between.

    Disturbed has some damn good covers. Weezer has some lackluster covers. The only song I even know by Bad Wolves is a cover. I literally couldn't name one other song by that band but I've heard that damn cover 500 times on the radio. I think the Killers should cover Boys of Summer by Don Henley or Ventura Highway by America.

    As you know I'm probably the biggest Killers fan on the boards, shit, I'm actually a FOB, but I don't want to name drop.

    Killers besides their own material, have done, and do killer covers (pardon the pun)
    One cover I'd love to see Brandon do is "Everlasting Love" he's the perfect tenor to pull it off.

    Here's a killer Killer cover, you'd swear the Raspberries are doing their own song.
    Tim Burton actually went out of his way to ask Brandon to do this for "Dark Shadows"
    Tim Burton!

    Listen, you'll be glad you did.
