Friday night is ... unusual cover versions night

[Over The Hill]

Cannot remember doing this before so apologies if we have.

Cover versions of a well known track (or put the original on too) that is a nice twist on the original.

On a happier note, this is one bitchin' cover version. This way that little lass hammers those drums would make even Cozy Powell take a respectful step back.
