    I have a similar soft spot which is why I own every Me First and the Gimme Gimmes CDs I'm currently aware of. I'm also a fan of Hayseed Dixie who did a bunch of bluegrass covers of classic rock songs and Hidden Beach Recording's Unwrapped volumes which do jazz renditions of pop and hip-hop songs.

    These are probably the three strangest videos to ever go together in one post.
