I was fortunate to be a teenager when rock really became rock (late 60s/early 70s). I have listened to certain original versions of songs 100s of times so I am becoming more drawn to an occasional liisten to cover songs. What are your favorite cover songs I can add to my Cover Songs playlist?


(Sittin on) The Dock of the Bay - Sara Bareilles
Your Love - Emma Burgess
Money (that's what I want) - David Gray
More Than This - Ten Thousand Maniacs
Teardrop - Newton Faulkner
Misty Mountain Hop - Four Non Blondes
Wicked Games - Gemma Hayes
People Get Ready - Jeff Beck & Rod Stewart
Wonderwall - Ryan Adams
