And I’m not saying that the original is bad. You have to have a good song to have a good cover in my opinion. But sometimes the cover artist just understands the mission and takes what the original song did and expands on that a hundred times over.
What’re some of your guys’s favorites?
How about a whole album? Billie Joe Armstrong: No Fun Mondays He recorded these and released them on several Mondays back in early lockdown. I love the hell out of this album.
Funny that Manic Monday is the first song on there, when there’s an old mashup remix album of American Idiot, and Whatsername is mashed with Manic Monday. The album is called Dean Gray, American Edit.
