For Nate

Nate,
You often post about one of your favorite artists, Olly Moss. I thought you might like this guy... Austin Madison. He's got quite the range when it comes to content, but his sketches about sports are really interesting to me.

If it ain't broke...


Not that anyone cares, but I missed the two-for-tuesday this week, sorry about that. I did want to make an open-ended post with this question (riffing off of Matt's suggestions for 2-4s):

Question


"While it is possible, sometimes, to find a cover that is better than or different enough from the original to be good, what are songs that should NEVER be covered (even if they have been)?"


Some suggestions


  • Bill Withers - Ain't No Sunshine (see list of covers)
  • Billy Joel - She's Always a Woman (a couple covers)
  • Pink Floyd (everything). There are just some bands whose music should never be messed with.
  • Bruce Springsteen - The River (as far as I know, this song has never been re-recorded by a cover artist --- let's keep it that way).


So, what would be on your list?
