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
