I always tough they were posers if they needed a cover for their first hit.
To be fair you can't really control what people will like. When a song off your album gets popular you either play that shit for the rest of your life and collect your money or you don't.
Nah, having a cover of your first album is still pretty poser.
The Clash had a cover on their first album (Police & Thieves), and if you count the North American release they had a second one (I Fought The Law).
Alien Ant Farm, Orgy, The Ataris...having a cover as your first hit seems like a surefire way to a dead end career.
