I feel we have wandered away from GOOD cover songs into just any random shit people have found on intarwebz.

you focus too much on the words, pay attention to keyboards.

On that note, here' a great tool for finding covers. I've used it for the radio show a few times and got surprised with some great covers.

Yep! A really fun part of this thread for me is remembering just how many songs we've heard over the years are really covers of even older songs.

Carlos did such a great version of this one too. If you believe the comments, the original band 'The Zombies' incorporated some it in their own performances.

How did I not know about Eumir Deodato? Thank you very much indeed! Now in the playlist for midnights in the garage when I commune with my wrench and motorcycle.
