most "nobody asked for it" cover of 2018

Hoobastank's re-do of Tears For Fears' "Head Over Heels."

(Not a typo.)

As opposed to Weezer's cover of "Africa," which practically everyone was asking for.

I only know Hoobastank are still around because I read a lengthy Facebook thread expressing outrage at this fact!

They're one of those bands I've refused to listen to because their name is so gawdawful. I think I'll continue that practice.

I've never heard another living soul mention them by name. Not even to say that they totally sucked or anything.

There's a whole genre for bands like that - Tonic, Trapt, Hinder - I dunno who else necessarily would be included in that but that sold a lot of records in the last era when people still sold a lot of records by profoundly sucking.

I sort of remember all of these bands and none of them at the same time.......
