@codinghorror A cover that improves on the original: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QW7WS-O2hjA

(Other good covers by Au Revoir Simone, and Daddy Issues, but not on the tubes in acceptable quality.)

Really interesting, thanks for linking that one.

I am fond of the more conventional cover by the Ataris ("I saw a Black Flag sticker on a Cadillac") and the more recent one by American Football was pretty good too.

OK, I *swear* I listened to an American Football cover of 'Boys of Summer' on Youtube a few months ago, but now I can't find it.

Their copy of Mazzie Star's 'Fade Into You' is fairly nice, though it loses the dreaminess of the original.

(Realizing now that 'American Football' was not a good choice of band name for search engine visibility, though I doubt anybody will ever top The The for that.)
