Im sure there are more, but atm I am too tired to check. I love Sublime, and when I was growing up their music was a staple in what I listened to. Then some years later I found out that most of the songs I really like are covers
They are still good when Sublime does them, but for some reason knowing that what I think of as their best stuff is all just covers sort of killed a lot of my enjoyment. Granted, Brad Nowell had a great voice, but the originals are also very good and worth a few listens.
Also, Left Over Crack ftw! Great mix of dirty punk and clean dancing ska.
