Had good fun playing all the covers to my wife last night who's inevitably a fan of the original. Smiles all round!
I’ll contribute a comment though.
I think there's something freeing about "doing a cover". The composition challenges can be hard, especially if you're not confident in the writing, or inspiration doesn't strike, or it just doesn't feel "ready" in time … with a cover, that bits "done" to some extent so you can just be free to interpret whatever the song is into something YOU want to listen to. Just have some fun and don't worry about it.
Loving it, I'm already looking forward to whatever the next one will be
was totally the brain child of @flying_pie nowt to do with me really other than I’m uploading the tracks... I’m I.T. Support on this one!...
cant take the credit for this idea at all.
Apart from all the thanks due for the admin, organisation and IT support, which stay with @poopot.
Seriously, thanks to everyone, however involved. I‘Ve just had the playlist on repeat play, and my good lady opined that “they’re better than the original”.
Not that she’s ever heard the *actual* orignal!
Somehow I have missed this thread ... I have the kernel of an idea that I will try and get done before the deadline .
Great idea for a thread/project and some brilliant entries !

For my entry I was wondering " If Rick Rubin had played Tiffany’s biggest hit for Johnny Cash during the American Recordings sessions how might that sound " ....
Well probably nothing like like my lame attempt .
My usual singing register is much higher so this was a challenge and I don’t play keyboards either but it needed some Hammond in there so I just used my iPad !
If nothing else I hope you get the idea/flavour of what I was going for ...
