I didn't know this was first recorded by Beau Williams in 1984.
Robbie Nevil was one of the writers. He had a hit with it in 1986. Still sounds great.

I just assumed The Shadows wrote it
Looking cool as fuck, it's a shame their association with Cliff resulted in many people dismissing them

What's so funny about peace love and understanding?
Written by Nick Lowe & released by Brinsley Schwarz in 1974.
Covered by Elvis Costello and the attractions in 1979.
Both versions are great...... although I prefer the Elvis version.

Not a cover but interesting all the same
"Video Killed the Radio Star" is a song written by Trevor Horn, Geoff Downes and Bruce Woolley in 1979. It was recorded concurrently by Bruce Woolley and the Camera Club (with Thomas Dolby on keyboards) for their album English Garden and by British new wave/synth-pop group the Buggles, which consisted of Horn and Downes (and initially Woolley)

More like I didn't know this was previously released in a different version.
SWV - Right here (1993). I always liked this one. Its the vocal melody & the Mick Jackson sample.
This is the original version from 1992

for years, i thought 'hush' which i first heard via kula shaker was originally by black sabbath. i've just learned their version was also a cover.
