Let’s talk cover songs. Let’s talk about listening to our favorite cover songs and the reasons why musicians choose to cover certain songs. We jump into the connection, relatability, and the nostalgia. From Chris Cornell covering Sinead O'Connor's version of Prince's "Nothing Compares 2 U", to Jazz, to Christmas songs, the podcast highlights the personal and artistic motivations behind the art of covering songs. Oh, and we talk about The Eagles too.
