My Dad, Doug Moon, was the lead guitarist for the original version. No wonder I love The Black Keys so much.... similar genres. I wish I could meet these guys. -Bonnie Moon

The Keys do the BEST covers. I think it's because they never choose a song they can't just jam to, know what I mean? Like even their cover of "Dearest" is very Keys. I dunno if I'm making any sense. Just enjoy the damn song!
