From Britney Spears to Social Distortion to Bryan Adams, Kid Cudi and Kanye West to Hanson, Bowling For Soup have applied their trademark sound to unique cover versions of huge hits by these artists and many more over the years. For their latest adventure in putting the BFS spin on the work of another artist however, they’ve chosen one of 2023’s biggest hits so far.
Having racked up over 500 million streams on Spotify and over 230 million views of the video on YouTube in a matter of weeks, Miley Cyrus song Flowers is going to be one of the biggest songs of the year. It caught the ear of Bowling For Soup main man Jaret Reddick straight away, as Jaret himself explains:
“It’s not often we want to record a current hit, but “Flowers” is a freakin BOP! The first time I heard this song, I could already hear what it would sound like as a BFS song. Excited for everyone else to hear it now”
Jaret was spot on, as the Bowling For Soup version of Flowers sounds easily like the song could have been meant for them all along! Please check out the video for the Bowling For Soup cover of Flowers above.
Bowling For Soup’s cover of Flowers is also available to stream or download on your music platform of choice.

Praise For Pop Drunk Snot Bread:
“Pop Drunk Snot Bread is a joyous and welcoming record made for beer-in-hand, arms-around-the-shoulder singalongs. Nearly three decades in, Bowling For Soup are proving they can still bring the pop-punk good times better than most.”
KKKK – Kerrang Magazine
“Feel-good music is few and far between in the modern era, and Bowling For Soup show why they should continue to be treasured in the scene. Pop Drunk Snot Bread is the perfect blend of raucous and wise, a lengthy, but playful collection emblazoned with heart.”
New Noise Magazine
“A joyous pop-punk romp, the album is packed with songs like “Hello Anxiety” that Joe Public can not only relate to but can sing along to with a beer in one hand and a massive grin on your face.”
V13
“Long-time fans of the foursome will find much to appreciate and enjoy from the new record, Pop Drunk Snot Bread (Brando/Que-so Records), and newcomers or the uninitiated can revel in BFS’s best musical performance to date.”
