Not sure if it's been mentioned - but Fall Out Boy - We Didn't Start The Fire.
Updated for 2023 with new news, whilst still remaining remarkably faithful to the original.
It's a great idea but rather puts into perspective how clever the Billy Joel original was. This one is clunky and not in chronological order.Updated for 2023 with new news, whilst still remaining remarkably faithful to the original.
