Content

After a few weeks of submissions and community voting, we have a list of 19 songs up for your consideration. This month's theme is cover songs. I'm listing the Title, then the Artist, then the Original Artist for clarification.

Vote for your favorite 5 on this list that you want me to hear. The top 10 (approximately) will get into the video. 

The poll is live through Saturday the 23rd. Happy voting!

all are winners...dk

Tamás Polyák

Bridge Over Troubled Water has a really great cover by the Neal Morse Band

Tamás Polyák

Also Bear McCreary's version of All Along the Watchtower always sends shivers down my spine

Dave Cohen

Santa Esmeralda was a woefully underappreciated band. Their covers of Please Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood, Gloria and House of the Rising Sun are unique.

GM Jim

Dave Matthews Watchtower is amazing as well

Jamie Mellway

Judas Iscariot - Synthnerd11 - Rick Wakeman (13:54 -- under 15!)

BRIAN MILLER

I voted for the 3 that I think I have actually heard before. Unfortunately I missed out on the opportunity to make suggestions/votes on Discord. I've been busy with other things including a couple of vacation trips this month. Oh well.

Jim Reeves

Looking at this list leaves me wondering who are fans of these "favorites"? Seems like a waste of the stream imho.

Sid Levy

I had so much fun checking out these covers I never heard of on YouTube. I discovered so awesome bands and respect for others.

Don Mal 1

Rachel Flowers on ELP is great, for being blind and playing like Emerson is amazing...she got to actual play with him

Richard Karbowski

I am very upset that Devo's cover of (I Can't Get No) Satisfaction is not a choice! 😉

Colin Heath

Humble Pie.............I Don't Need No Doctor. Great to see Rachel in there. Her connection to Keith's music is unbelievable and I'm sure his death must have hit her very hard - probably more than anyone else.

John Clark

Can't get excited by any of these, I'm afraid to say.

Jamie Mellway

Not too excited about those. How about these? Mars The Bringer of War - King Crimson - Gustav Holst (10:11) Pictures At An Exhibition - ELP - Modest Mussorgsky (53:05 - Epic length) Ionisation - Frank Zappa - Edgard Varèse (6:50) Bouree - Jethro Tull - Bach (3:52) Toccata - ELP - Alberto Ginastera (7:23) Egg - Fugue In D Minor - Bach (2:50 - Not a lot of Canterbury scene has been on the channel) Toxic - Marillion - Britney Spears (4:34) Or maybe something from A Perfect Circle's Emotive album?

Jojojojo

I'm surprised that Jimi Hendrix's cover of All Along the Watchtower isn't the one on the list.

doughelvering

For those not vibing with these selections, remember that these are cultivated via our discord (which you all have access to). The first round of submissions and community up-voting happen there each month. I hope you'll participate with us to share your ideas next time!

Aaron West

Agreed with Doug. We also have events where we play the songs in the Discord. That attracts upvotes and largely informs what makes the final list. I’ve heard all of these and there are some real gems here. This is going to be a fun video.

Frank Bernard

The dream theater covers of Elton John and Queen are so good. Hope that they make the top 5 cut.

Mark Brennan

For me, one song soars above the rest: Nothing Compares 2 U (well-written, strong song) by Chris Cornell (the most amazing voice on this list, for sure). Each stands tall on its own, but together they are more than the sum of its parts.

Ash Armstrong

I'm slightly surprised no one has mentioned the entire side of cover versions on Todd Rundgren's Faithful album from 1976: The Yardbirds - Happenings Ten Years Time Ago; Beach Boys - Good Vibrations; Beatles - Rain; Bob Dylan - Most Likely You Go Your Way and I'll Go Mine; Jimi Hendrix - If Six Was Nine; Beatles - Strawberry Fields Forever. They are, as the album title suggests, faithful to the originals to an uncanny degree.

Great Scott

I'm curious -- this will be a poll by "likes" -- that is, click the heart icon on one of the two replies just below this. It concerns the Rachel Flowers cover of Karn Evil 9 2nd Impression. There are two good versions, and I'm interested in how many of you (who actually bother to read the comments here) are willing to open the replies and click on one of the hearts, so please continue with this:
