Yup, but as others have said, we/I try to add something of ourselves to the song. Tempo, dynamics, key, arrangement and other interpretive elements help make a piece our own.

This applies to everything I play cause I'm not interested in being someone else. The celtoid band, the rockin' blues group, the fiddle/guitar duo all approach the music this way.

In my solo stuff, I deliberately choose lesser known songs if they're not original, trying to do them justice while still being me.

Peace, Mooh.
