triviatuesday:

Thanks for helping us affix names to the song snippets on our mixtape, rebstein!  You were one of a few who got the songs and artists all correct, and named the theme.  The songs:

1. The Fugees - “Killing Me Softly” (originally Roberta Flack)
2. Whitney Houston - “I Will Always Love You” (originally Dolly Parton)
3. Dynamite Hack - “Boyz-n-the-Hood” (originally Eazy-E)
4. Michael Jackson - “Come Together” (originally The Beatles)
5. Guns N’ Roses - “Live and Let Die” (originally Paul McCartney and Wings)
6. The Black Crowes - “Hard to Handle” (originally Otis Redding)
7. Counting Crows with Vanessa Carlton - “Big Yellow Taxi” (originally Joni Mitchell)
8. Red Hot Chili Peppers - “Higher Ground” (originally Stevie Wonder)
9. Johnny Cash - “Hurt” (originally nine inch nails)
10. Soft Cell - “Tainted Love” (originally Gloria Jones)

As you can see, the theme is that they were all covers…

And rebstein, speaking of covers, do you know what has a cover?  The copy of Mo’Nique’s book Skinny Women Are Evil that is now yours!  What’s the deal with this, what’s the deal with that?  Did you ever wonder about whatever?  Well, Mo’Nique has a humorous point of view on that!  Next stop, laughter!

My expression in that icon is totally my expression right now. :D And the glorious prize should make for some interesting reading on the train…
