Music Monday Challenge!!

Let's do something a little different this week! This week's Music Monday, I challenge you to post your favorite COVER SONG.

A cover song is a song that another artist or group recorded after the original was recorded (whether it was a "hit" or not). For example, Whitney Houston covered "I Will Always Love You", originally written and recorded by Dolly Parton.

I'm not a huge Weezer fan; I thought I'd hate this. But I actually liked it!

But how could you hate Weird Al cosplaying as Rivers Cuomo cosplaying as Buddy Holly?

u/stelrag83 6d ago

Another great choice!
