The Oils SHOULD have covered "Nature" by Wayne Mason of NZ.  The song was 
made famous in the early 90's by NZ stalwarts The Mutton Birds.  Its all 
about finding meaning while being lost in the bush...

The Remainders (aka 4 Past Midnight) should do a cover of Exhuming 
McCarthy by R.E.M.  It's a poitical rant, but has a wierd, jaunty 
beat, and would be vocally perfect for bones.

None of them under any circumstances should cover "Goody Goody Two Shoes" 
by Adam Ant.  If that song was any cheesier it'd be a pizza topping!
