I’m going to share this with all of you because it was my #1 and I think it’s a great cover of a great Springsteen song. And Dion can sing the phone book and still sound great.

This version of “Deacon Blues” is my #onevotewonder

I’m kind of surprised since I heard it on Sleepy Hollow.

Thanks @kristenkurtis.bsky.social

I think we got it right. 1 and 2 are truly transformative covers that surpass the original.

I was walking home from work when it came on, but I think the cover of “I Will Survive” I had on my list absolutely kills! (And might be a One Vote Wonder)

If this is what we’re doing, I have a whole playlist of acoustic covers of rap songs. I mean…

This is the song that deserves to be the longest in this countdown.

Is there a Linda Ronstadt covering Bob Dylan song? I feel like we need that.

@magentarocks.bsky.social Kind of lame to throw out a misinformed opinion and then disable comments.

Luke Combs covered Fast Car because he used to listen to it in the car with his father. He did it as a fan, not with some BS ulterior motive.

I don’t have a problem with Luke Combs’ cover of “Fast Car” because you could see how much of a fan he was of Tracy Chapman and the song when they performed it together.

This cover of “Heart of Gold” by Fiona Apple might be the most recent cover in the whole countdown so far. Didn’t it come out just last year?

Buckle in. This has the potential to go for 17+ minutes if they play the full version.

I love live Bruce as much as anyone, but what “song” is actually being covered here?

Posted this yesterday and nothing, so I’m remaining positive today.

Today is going to be the day that something from my list is finally going to be played. I can feel it!
