If a song's been covered by another band, then either artist is acceptable for the game. For example, "I Feel For You" would be acceptable from Chaka Kahn or from Prince; "I Think We're Alone Now" would be acceptable from Tommy James or from Tiffany. However, if the remake has a changed lyric and the changed lyric is part of the clue, then only the remake counts. "He was just 17, you know what I mean" would have to be "I Saw Him Standing There," by Tiffany, not "I Saw Her Standing There" by the Quarrymen.
Why I remember all those old Tiffany songs, I have no idea.

It was played on album oriented stations so that counts. I remember it I just can't think of the song right now

Don't know the title but then I never did like the stones to much. unless it was covered by Flying Burrito brothers also which would make it dead flowers but I think that's another song.

It's a great clue-The Beach Boys-Student Demonstration.
I was just dragging out the suspense.

This one's for fun.
His foot nudged the brakes to slow him down.
But the pedal floored easy without a sound.
He said "Christ!"
It was funny how he had named the only man who could save him now.

so does that mean that you're next wasway?
Let me think of one...
here's a fairly easy one... very easy...
I was cruisin' in my Stingray late one night
When an XKE pulled up on the right
And rolled down the window of his shiny new Jag
And challenged me then and there to a drag

They were still called the Quarrymen when they did I Saw Her Standing There? I didn't know that!

If Bon Jovi did "Travelling Band," then it's an acceptable answer. Bon Jovi doing "Travelling Band," however, is NOT acceptable!! Is NOTHING sacred??
