Sometimes, you learn something you should have known. Slade .vs. Quiet Riot .vs. Great Big Sea.

I have long lived under the assumption that Quiet Riot was responsible for Cum on feel the noize.




In the most oblique manner I could have imagined I discovered that Slade had the first hit version:


Google music had a discount on the next album purchased.  I used this to get Great Big Seas XX album.  It is a greatest hits 30 song album.  One of my favourite tunes is a Cover of Slade's Run Runaway.


My wife knew it was a Slade cover,  I did not.  That lead me to look up Slades discography and low and behold!


Great Big Sea turned Run runaway into a Newfoundland Celtic pub song:  Enjoy!!
