Cover Charge is simple: A covers B, B covers C, C covers D and so on, until I loop back to where I started, Ouroboros-style.
Last time: Prince to Sheryl Crow
It's a little bit of a cheat today, sorry. For whilst this most certainly is a cover by Sheryl Crow, she does feature some additional vocals from the original artist during the chorus. But my gaff, my rules, so here goes, with Sheryl's retooling of Digging in the Dirt, from March 2024 - this sounds surprisingly good through headphones. Mundane fact: Sheryl's middle name is Suzanne.
And here's Peter Gabriel's original, all the way back from when he was breaking new ground with a run of innovative music videos. I think I'm right in saying this was the first single taken from 1992's pajillion-selling album Us.
Next time: Peter has cod'n'chips.
Love the way Sheryl's female vocals instantly soften the song. Not cheating, Martin - this whole chain is remarkable and must be taking a lot of research - brilliant stuff.
ReplyDeleteThank you, C. Not sure about remarkable but it has engaged the grey matter, at least.
