The CoverUp

You think you'll file this one under "didn't know it was a cover". And you could. But it's really in a category all its own. I've Got My Mind Set On You, originally by James Ray with the Hutch Davie Orchestra & Chorus, covered by George Harrison.

Outro music is "(This Song is Just) Six Words Long", by Weird Al Yankovic.

A confusing origin and timeline, one of the saddest stories in rock and roll, and Billy Baldwin. But Rich doesn't care, because he's all nostalgic. Real Real Gone, originally by Tom Fogerty (yes, that's not a typo), covered by Van Morrison.

Outro music is Train to Nowhere, also by Tom Fogerty.

A band that perfectly blended innovation with powerhouse performances find their feet -- and ends up standing with Florida Man. Don't Change, originally by INXS, covered by Limp Bizkit.

Outro music is Suicide Blonde, also by INXS.

A group of musicians pivotal to multiple popular music genres, golden age and modern variety shows, and titans of their style. Cupid, originally by Sam Cooke, Covered by Bernadette Peters, and by Boyz II Men.

Outro music is Blue Moon, by Rod Stewart featuring Eric Clapton, who managed to outclass Tony Bennet that year -- Just listen. Everything will be clear.

Artists going their own way, a surprise songwriter, and brilliantly malicious compliance. For No One, originally by The Beatles, covered by Emmylou Harris, and by Rickie Lee Jones.

Outro music is Up A Lazy River, by Bing Crosby and Louis Armstrong.

A brilliant and beloved song that didn't work like expected, a fascinating charity album, and a pretty darned good roll on a d20. Nightswimming, originally by REM, covered by Okay Kaya, and by Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit.

Outro music is I've Been to Memphis, by Lyle Lovett.

A musical journey from Los Angeles to Ukraine, through Sweden, to get hooked on phonics. Hot N Cold, originally by Katy Perry, covered by Los Colorados.

Outro music is Johnny Saucep'n, by Moxy Früvous.

New Wave, Glam, Punk, Pop, New Romantic, and Ska? It makes sense in the end. Stand and Deliver, originally by Adam and the Ants, covered by No Doubt.

Outro music is Antmusic, also by Adam and the Ants.

A voyage of discovery -- is it the song or the episode? Shotgun, originally by George Ezra, covered by Pomplamoose featuring Dodie.

Outro music is Budapest, also by George Ezra, because Rich is convinced Amanda actually knows that one.

A surprise revelation buried under another surprise revelation -- and one of us kinda misses the point (one guess only). I Haven't Seen You In A Long Time, originally by Colin Hay, covered by Great Big Sea.

Outro music is Jack Hinks, also by Great Big Sea -- but seriously, spend some time with both of these bands. You won't be disappointed.
