What's with the necessity for these sorts of bands to do superfluous covers?

Snow Patrol rarely do covers.

They covered the B&S song because they were playing at the List's "Top 50 Scottish Bands" gig and each band playing was covering "anothter" (given the Norn Irishness of SP) Scottish Band's song. Eugene Kelly (of the Vaselines) did 500 miles, Mull Historical Society did Some Candy Talking, and Idleshite, sorry, Idlewild... did that pish Simple Minds song that everyone seems to know.

Ah. Cheers.

I don't like it when supposed "proper" guitar bands do covers of bubblegum pop - Travis doing Britney Spears songs, etc, under the guise of irony.

Snow Patrol have done, as far as I know, one stupid pop song, which was Beyonce's "Crazy In Love". And fucking quality it was too :D Usually if they're covering something it'll something lesser known.

As well as CiL, since they've become (reasonably) famous, they've done Damien Rice's "Blowers Daughter", Low's "Two Step" and "Just Like Christmas, and Will Oldham's "New Partner".

In the past they did The Corrs' "What Can I Do?", and they've done Teenage Kicks a few times, mostly acoustic though ;)

To be honest, I'm quite happy with bands playing covers if it sounds different to the original, or is bringing the original artist to a new market. I'd probably never have listened to the first three artists otherwise.

Is it as good as travis' cover of baby one more time? (I think that's what it's called?)

Elbow's cover of Destinys Child's 'Independent Women' is superb. (Note: It might have been Bootylicious actually, i can't remember)

:D
