    i was listening to the radio this morning an heard an ad for a ub40 gig. as i listened to the full ad it occured to me that not one of the songs on it were originally by ub40:
    kingston town: bob marley
    suspicious minds: elvis
    i cant help falling in love with u: elvis
    babe: sonny & cher
    red wine: cant remember who sang this but am fairly sure they werent the first

    so. were they?

    whosurpaddy:
    They had a lot of covers and they had a lot of their own songs, so no they weren't strictly a covers band.

    woosaysdan:
    Probably.
