Their version...is 1985 a cover??

Indeed, it was supposed to be on SR71's last album but they had trouble getting labels to release it, the song got somehow sent to BFS that rewrote a bit of the lyrics and released it on their album. This was the start for Mitch Allans songwriting career. 

Original version:

I've thought about this since May, and I keep changing my mind about it. 

I think it's either Dammit or What's My Age Again....so still undecided.

Both have the riffs, both have great choruses, both have great bridges, both have the energy.

What's My Age Again? - blink-182
Basket Case - Green Day

Dammit - blink-182

I want to go with 32 songs for a bracket. 50+ more songs have been nominated, but only by one person, so let's nominate some more and I'll make a final list hopefully within a few days.

I don't care if you've already posted your nominations, you can nominate more songs or change your nominations or whatever if you want to.
