Joe Offer The shame in singing covers (145* d) RE: The shame in singing covers 15 Jun 14


Gee, it's kind of a dangerous thing to condemn "covers" on a Website that emphasizes traditional singing.

I tried singer-songwriter "folk" music in the 1990s, and found it unsatisfying. Most of the time, I'd buy a CD and get one or two songs I liked and find the rest boring. Traditional music is tried and true, songs shared over generations and often over centuries. And every singer does each song a little differently. What's more, I can sing along because I know the songs.
