There's no question:  "Jenny (867-5309)" by Tommy Tutone.  I heard the
Refreshments do a partial live cover of it during a radio interview
here in Dallas the other day.  My first thought:  "Now I remember what
a cool song that is."  My second thought:  "That would make a BITCHIN'
Connells cover!"
 
I'd also like to hear them do "Brown-Eyed Girl" by Van Morrison (they
probably already have, and I just don't know it -- it's hard to be a
Connells fan in Texas :(  ).
 
Now I'm waiting for all the wise guys who have been so consistently
disappointed at Connells live shows to post saying, "I'd like to hear
the Connells do a cover of 'Seven'!"  ;)
