Me First and the Gimme Gimmes is a punk cover band composed of members of other well known punk bands such as Swingin' Utters, NOFX, Foo Fighters, and Lagwagon, who all play in Me First & The Gimme Gimmes as their schedules permit. Their first live performance was on 4/20/1996 at the Chameleon Club in San Francisco. The studio core comprises Spike on vocals, bassist Fat Mike, Joey Cape guitar and backing vocals, Dave Raun on drums, and at least one of the notorious Shiflett Bros on guitar (Scott of Face to Face/ Viva Deathfills in when Chris is too busy with the Foos). Audiences enjoy watching them sloppily perform Punk versions of popular songs, and live & touring members have included Brian Baker of Bad Religion/ Minor Threatand Barry DaLive of Crosstops/ RKL, Eric Melvin (guitarist of NOFXreplacing Fat Mike), as well as the bagpipe player from the Real Mackenzies. Originally a themed 7" singles project, now each of their full length albums covers a different genre of music spanning the 50's to the 90's.

It's been seven hours and fifteen days
Since u took your love away
I go out every night and sleep all day
Since u took your love away
Since u been gone I can do whatever I want
I can see whomever I choose
I can eat my dinner in a fancy restaurant
But nothing
nothing can take away these blues
'Cause nothing compares
Nothing compares 2 u
It's been so lonely without u here
Like a bird without a song
Nothing can stop these lonely tears from falling
Tell me baby where did I go wrong
I could put my arms around every boy I see
But they'd only remind me of you
I went to the doctor n'guess what he told me
Guess what he told me
He said boy u better try to have fun
No matter what u do
But he's a fool
'Cause nothing compares
Nothing compares 2 u
All the flowers that u planted, mama
In the back yard
All died when u went away
I know that living with u baby was sometimes hard
But I'm willing to give it another try
Nothing compares
Nothing compares 2 u
