[Happy birthday to [livejournal.com profile] _lackey_!]

As I happen to scan around the various iTunes music libraries on the network here at work (three out of four of which would answer "Yes" below), I am inspired to run a simple poll.

[Poll #1449834]

Sorted by Artist, I have "Goody Two Shoes" by Adam Ant, from the Hot Fuzz soundtrack.

I do have "Take On Me," but it's a ska cover by a band called Reel Big Fish. I also have two covers of "Paint It Black," one by Inkubus Sukkubus and an instrumental one by Rick Wakeman, a cover of "Comfortably Numb" by Staind, the version of "All Along The Watchtower" from Battlestar Galactica by Bear McCreary, "Another Brick In The Wall" as interpreted by Korn, an entire album called "When Pigs Fly," which is full of covers ("Shock The Monkey" sung by Don Ho! What's not to love?), and of course, "Sabbatum" by Rondellus, which is Black Sabbath's greatest hits translated into Latin and played on medieval instruments. We used "Magus (The Wizard)" for our wedding processional. I thought it a better choice than "Verres Militares (War Pigs)"

So... yeah. I love covers.

Check out the Coverville podcast if you don't already listen to it. I've found some great stuff that way. (Palast Orchester, for example.)
