      SongShift does a good job of shifting playlists from Spotify to other services (in my case ) if you have a free account like me and can't handle the commercials or limited skips through songs you already know.

      Side-note: my voting philosophy isn't "best" cover, but most interesting, which means something I may not have heard or a particularly creative reinterpretation. So there are some songs that I absolutely love that will not get an upvote in favor of a song I may like less but find a more interesting submission.

      Amazed at how prompt y'all are in voting!

      Think it, be it.

          Fuck man I think I failed to upvote that Cake War Pigs cover and meant to. Anyway my votes are in. Impressive first round playlist!

            I put one in for Cake. Underrated band I believe

              I love them and the cover met my standard for creative reinterpretation but that one slipped.

              It would be hard to vote for an undeserving song though, a strong round, which did not surprise me.

              Think it, be it.

                I 100% gave that Cake Sabbath cover top bill. Was saving three points to give but was limited to two. Two of my favorite bands coming together as one!!

                  Also glad to see that Sturgill In Bloom get the props it deserves!

                    I am sure we will lose some of this momentum, but wow 18/19 votes are in and they aren’t due until Saturday; y’all are crushing it, team!

                    We do have one more slot if someone wants to join. You would not be able to participate in this first round though.

                      Not sure if this Phoebe Bridgers track will get my vote, but love that there’s another fan here. Punisher is one of my favourite recent albums

                      She’s about all I listened to while we were on the road. @Alex do you like boy genius too? They have a new one coming out very soon.

                        I blame the audiobook I'm listening to right now...

                        That Proud Mary cover hit me just right walking to work this morning, gave me chills! But that may also be the snow...

                              @SKT we saw Billy Strings play it for their encore at Mishawaka, an incredibly scenic outdoor venue in the Poudre Canyon, in 2018.

                                  Update: it struck me that tracking the results in-line was a bad idea, so I will be updating the initial post in this thread with playlist links and results as we go along.

                                  Remember that you can easily reach this initial post by clicking the double up-arrows bottom right of the screen.

                                    I know that "labels" are a slippery slope but how would you guys classify this recent emergence of country/bluegrass/americana artists?

                                    I'm thinking folks like Sturgill Simpson, Billy Strings, Tyler Childers etc...

                                    I'm ashamed to say that this version of in bloom was the first Sturgill track I've ever heard and I'm fairly ignorant to billy and Tyler's stuff as well

                                      Uh! I just realised that my top pick for the upcoming 'Instumental' round is 15 minutes long. I can't subject y'all to that in good conscience...

                                      If anyone want something to vibe to next time they take a walk, this one's on me.

                                      https://open.spotify.com/track/4Ce66JznW8QbeyTdSzdGwR?si=M72jAxK4RjOD_cF20wBvyg&app_destination=copy-link

                                      It'll make you feel like the funkiest pimp daddy in town.

                                        I’m not sure what the label would be but getcha some more Sturgill. Turtles All the Way Down is a favorite of mine. He’s also got a great Tiny Desk concert that shows off how great a guitar player he is. I think he produced a couple of Tyler’s albums too.

                                          I can think of plenty of less awesome ways to spend a quarter of an hour

                                          Does it count as instrumental if it's herbie on vocoder?
