Day 07 - 30 Day Movie Music Challenge

A cover version you heard from a film before you heard the original

 I'm almost ashamed to own up to this one... Elton John, in huge platform boots, singing pinball wizard. What's extra sad is that I didn't even know it was a cover.


And to redress the balance:


Is your choice as embarrassing?

I Want You To Want Me by Letters To Cleo from 10 Things I Hate About You. I only recently found out it's a Cheap Trick cover!

Great film, though, and a pretty good TV spinoff recently.

Cheap Trick are another band I enjoy in small dozes. Dream Police was (and probably still is) my favourite. Did you get the free download when I posted it? http://musicddm.blogspot.com/2010/10/free-download-friday-75-green-police.html Seems to be gone now but you can still hear it on the advert.

Cheap Trick to me were always a one-hit wonder. However, I can't remember what that one hit was...
