By deep I mean with the most obscure original. I am not talking 'all along the watch tower' but things like Fever Ray's cover of Vashti Bunyan's song Here before

Fever Ray is relatively well known while Bunyan had very limited success

I'm actually gobsmacked to hear 1985 isn't a bowling for soup original, it's a song I associate with them intrinsically

SR-71 ended up being a one hit wonder band and the singer ended up being a songwriter and producer, so I could see the song getting shopped around for a second chance.
