Start of the (super long) Covers category! Covers ROUND ONE 1.) Big Yellow Taxi vs. Ooh La La 2.) This Land is Your Land vs. Girl from the North Country 3.) Coming Around vs. You Ain’t Going Nowhere 4.) Blues Run the Game vs. Amie
Big Yellow Taxi This Land Is Your Land Coming Around Blues Run The Game (toughest one for me this round)
Big Yellow Taxi Girl from the North Country You Ain’t Going Nowhere Amie Rooting for "Girl from the North Country" to win this part of the bracket. I like the Crows version more than the Bob Dylan version.
Big Yellow Taxi This Land is Your Land You Ain’t Going Nowhere Blues Run the Game Most of these could go either way

B-Sides ROUND TWO 1.) Four White Stallions vs. The Ballad of El Goodo 2.) Meet on the Ledge vs. Friend of the Devil 3.) The Ghost in You vs. Borderline
Four White Stallions Friend of the Devil Borderline I love "The Ghost In You" soo much but gotta give it to "Borderline" cause it's such a great arrangement. Wish they had properly recorded it for "Underwater Sunshine"
The Ballad Of El Goodo Friend Of The Devil (toughest choice for me this round) Borderline I like their cover songs, but I rarely listen to them.
Winners in bold... Four White Stallions - 2 The Ballad of El Goodo - 3 Meet on the Ledge - 0 Friend of the Devil - 5 The Ghost in You - 1 Borderline - 4 “Meet on the Ledge” bites the dust, onto to the next round!
