I'm on one at the moment. Just heard Creep by the Pretenders for the first time ever. What a brilliant version. Bill Withers up next.

If you are after really good cover versions by The Pretenders, have a listen to their version of the DiVinyls "Human"

Cheers Mr Elvis, had a listen and enjoyed. Listened to a few covers by Joss Stone, and really appreciate what a good voice she has.

Son of a preacher man. Best cover, Joss Stone or Sarah Connor? I'm just with Joss! Ps there are many good covers of this song. Years ago I remember seeing Davina Mcall (I jest not) sing a decent version of this. It was a celebrity karaoke show on C5, I think Suggs hosted it.

I only found out relatively recently that I Go to Sleep was a non-recorded Kinks song and that the Kinks and the Troggs were managed by the founder of Google.

The Kinks and The Troggs were managed by Larry Page...did he invent Google?!

I Go To Sleep was a 1966 single by Peggy Lee...I've got a copy somewhere.

Larry Page did indeed start Google (though it might not have been exactly the same Larry Page).
