Not Another Teen Movie was one of the best soundtracks. Some seriously excellent cover songs

LMAO I have Orgy's platinum plaque from their debut album. Someone was going to trash it when I worked at a record label, and I had to take it with me when I quit.

lmao love this OP!! ty for the mention 😘

ballad of chasey lain was one of my favs as a kid, i’d sing it all the time oops

yay! i'm also curious about the question lol i have no idea what the answer is but i do suspect it might have something to do with the sheer number of covers and the constant use in movies and tv since there's a lot of $$$ in that. maybe not though because it's not like other bands don't get covered. maybe we'll find out oneday!

I saw them a few years ago and didn't know they covered this song. They played it and I literally started crying it was amazing.

I love Depeche Mode but I always have to think about how Einstürzende Neubauten claimed they stole from them.
