Everybody’s Dressin’ Funny … Cover Me Impressed!

Don’t normally like this type of mega-hit pop song but damn it, it has such a catchy hook and the vocals are just beautiful.

The Original

Really great little ballad by Slim Dunlap. Dunlap became The Replacements guitar player after Bob Stinson was kicked out of the band for ever increasing substance abuse problems. The Replacements supposedly covered the song. In fact the cover by Hamell On Trail came from a Replacements tribute album. But I used every means of research at my disposal to try and locate a cut of The Replacements playing this ballad but came up empty. I imagine they probably covered it at live shows that were never captured.
