From stone cold classics to utter butcherings, there are few musical subjects more likely to stir people’s passions than the humble cover version. Last week, I asked for your favourite covers, and the response has been frankly preposterous: easily the most popular callout since we started asking for your cultural recommendations just under a year ago.
So this week we’re devoting the bulk of the newsletter to your suggestions. There’s a great mix here, from covers that have become more famous than the original to unsung gems. And of course there are some controversial opinions to get stuck into! Thanks to everyone who sent in their suggestions – had we included them all this would be the longest newsletter in recorded history.
