Songs You Might Not Know Were Covers - #2

A lot of people are probably familiar with this song from 1981...

The original, however, was done in 1964 by Gloria Jones...

Well, [b]I[/b] knew the Soft Cell version was a cover. (But I’m the kind of person who would...)

I didn't know that "I Love Rock n Roll" wasn't originally a Joan Jett song. Alan Merrill, one of the writers of that song, just passed as a result of CoVid19.
