Second cover by Yo La Tengo! Taps the sign… @wxpnfm.bsky.social #XPNCountdown
There’s the first cover by Yo La Tengo. Even though I didn’t put them on my list, I could have made an entire list of covers by YLT! There are so great interpreting other artists’ work. #XPNCountdown @wxpnfm.bsky.social

I also struggled with Gloria by Patti Smith, but I ended up voting for that because it’s really just the brilliant intro that’s original material. #XPNCountdown @wxpnfm.bsky.social
The Muppet Show theme by OK Go reminds me of an important question—does The Magic Number by De La Soul count as a cover? They added so much of their own to the original. This can apply to so many Hip Hop tracks, really… #xpncountdown @wxpnfm.bsky.social

I would listen to Neko Case cover anything. #xpncountdown @wxpnfm.bsky.social

This is a lovely version of Neil Young’s Philadelphia, which is such a devastating song. #xpncountdown @wxpnfm.bsky.social
FUN FACT: My first “official“ date with my wife, we went to see Philadelphia. Despite such a sad stars, we’ve had a happy life, so…

When Tina Turner covers a song, hers becomes the definitive version. That’s the rules. #xpncountdown @wxpnfm.bsky.social

Holy shit, Def Leppard cover Depeche Mode? The 80s universe is thrown into utter chaos. #xpncountdown

Goddamn, I love and miss The Ramones. #xpncountdown @wxpnfm.bsky.social

Led Zep was a prolific cover band and also one of the most covered bands. #xpncountdown @wxpnfm.bsky.social FYI, if you have seen the Robert Plant Tiny Desk concert yet, treat yourself. He just seems like such an interesting dude, despite being a Rock God. youtu.be/gHL5ApOqMQc?...

So many massive songs are this far down the list because people had no idea they were covers. #xpncountdown @wxpnfm.bsky.social

Wow, how is Stevie - Once in My Life not Top 50? #XPNCountdown @wxpnfm.bsky.social

OK, I love this Lorde Replacements cover. Hearing it for the first time. #XPNCountdown @wxpnfm.bsky.social

I learned about The Vaselines from Nirvana. Thought Molly’s Lips would be higher. #XPNCountdown @wxpnfm.bsky.social

It sucks that Ryan Adams is such a shitty person. He wrote some really good songs. See also Mark Kozelek… #XPNCountdown @wxpnfm.bsky.social
December 4, 2025 at 3:47 PM
I honestly thought Soup Dragons would be at least Top 100. It‘s probably better known than the Stones version. #XPNCountdown @wxpnfm.bsky.social
