Everyone seems to be covering other people's songs these days. Frankly, most covers are pretty crap, so I've tried to share some that I think stand out from the dross. Of course I'm happy to hear your opinions - favourable or otherwise.


By the way: this feature used to have the rather clunky title of "Unexpected (but great) Cover Versions. You can see why I changed it!
