Thanks to a post today from thebigwhitevan about songs from Africa, He sent me down the rabbit hole after listening to the cover of "Africa" by Toto performed by Weezer. I found so many other 1980's covers they have done and in the spirit of childhood I now really want to go to a Weezer concert but with them performing covers only. I was never a huge fan of Weezers music but they frickin' kick ass covering these songs and I can only imagine them live...it would be a great experience to relive the 80's but as an adult and not a kid!
Check out their youtube page and enjoy yourself some 80's covers! Link posted. Oh yeah, and to really top it off they had Weird AL star as the singer in this video (love Weird Al- one of the BEST)
Africa, Rosanna, Take on Me, Everybody wants to Rule the World and MORE
