Clearly @savemeaseat.bsky.social, @atcl.bsky.social and I are DISGUSTED that we didn't win the Nobel Peace Prize for last month's #5CoverSongsSwitch, and will be placing a 150% tariff on CROOKED NORWAY's 'music', so take THAT on me, A-Ha!

But #5CoverSongsTreat starts soon, so maybe next year...

I think this #5CoverSongsSwitch
#MusicChallenge is over but gonna post anyway. #MusicSky

IT’S THE END OF THE WORLD AS WE KNOW IT 2021
I, Doris

Bonus pick as the lyrics change enough that it may not count as a cover :-)

That’s great it starts with a world plague
Bats in cages with Pangolins
Megan Markle’s not afraid.

Manic Monday

#5CoverSongsSwitch day 5
#MusicChallenge

Final one from Kate Rusby's Hand Me Down. Probably The Bangles version is the best known, but the original is Prince's, and shows yet again what a brilliant writer he was.

Day 5

St. Vincent – Sad But True

I'm far from the world's biggest Metallica fan, so for me to say I prefer this over the original may not say a lot. I absolutely love what St. Vincent did with this song, and I listen to it often.

Thanks to everyone who joined in with #5CoverSongsSwitch - so many brilliant choices!

And remember when Run-DMC claimed "It's tricky, tricky, tricky, tricky, HUH!"? Well...

They were wrong! It's treat-y, treat-y, treat-y, treat-y - or at least it will be in October!
