Today's music feature may leave you questioning whether your favourite songs are actually an original.

Because today we are talking about songs you may not know are covers!

To give us his top picks we're joined by a regular on this segment, Brad Warrington who is with us in the Wellington studio.

He kicks off the session today with Twist and Shout from the Beatles - which was originally a song from the lesser known band, The Top Notes.
