Yes - Bananarama's upbeat "No Feelings" version - they were put together by Steve Jones, so that is not only the best cover of that song, but a little tribute to their origin.

Years ago, when I chose my DJ premiums during a WFMU Marathon, I chose not to get the Amanda CD. Is it possible I made a mistake back then?

Irwin's heavy rotation of Amanda was a big factor in getting me hooked to WFMU when I first started listening at that time.

Good comparison - it is a bit like an upbeat Ray Davies song with biting lyrics. (And like the Kinks songs which also started out raw and electric, and gradually got nicer and more refined production but kept Ray's (and Dave's) attitude.)

The great news is that many independent artists do stuff like that all the time, though not necessarily as popular or as big of a cultural meme. But there is weird music like that, NOT connected with WFMU or Adult Swim!

There is "Latin" or "jive" music which can contain vibes as well, but those are already jazzy or jazz-adjacent too.
