Does OK Go do any cover songs in concert? Aside from "This Will Be Our Year," I don't know of any. But then again, I've never been lucky enough to see them live LOL.

    Tons. Lets see what I can remember...

    Panic - The Smiths
    Hold The Line - Toto
    Oliver's Army - Elvis Costello

    What am I forgetting guys?

    I can actually see them covering Elvis Costello. They have very a similar sound. They should cover "Radio Radio" or "So Like Candy." They would rock those songs.

    Kiss Me, son of god by They Might Be Giants, something like that.
    Crimson and Clover too yes? Dunno original artist.

    Prove My Love / The Violent Femmes

    I've never heard their cover of Elvis Costello. I once asked Tim to play Pump It Up, but he answered "Sorry, that song goes to Phantom Planet."
    And, I really want to hear Jessie's Girl, too

    they've also done "pretty in pink," but that was basically because jon cryer was at a show at the troub. for some reason i also remember them playing "the boys are back in town" too

    I think Crimson and Clover was by Tommy James and the Shondells.

    I know that Everclear does a version of "The Boys are Back in town." I forgot who originally did that song though. I want to say ZZ Top, but I'm probably wrong LOL.
