I remember the first time I heard this song - it was on the radio on the way home from my MMA class. I immediately cranked it up. It sounded totally familiar but very new at the same time - like a long lost 80s hit I'd heard but forgotten.
I was listening to a couple tracks by Pulp and they brought this to mind.

Covers: William Shatner / Common People
Until this morning I have no idea this cover existed:
William Shatner, off of Has Been
.
That's the album he did with Ben Folds, and this song partners him with Joe Jackson. I love how much this reminds me of The Nails "88 Lines About 44 Women", and a bit of People Who Died.
But yeah, until today I'd never heard this song. I didn't even know the original existed, either. This song didn't hit where I was in the 90s, I guess. It rocks. The cover though, that's just awesome.
