> Some covers deliver the age-old simple pleasures of drag—knowledge, the opportunity to investigate the simulacra and make comparisons, that obscure little frisson of dissonance. Take Joan Baez singing "Virgil Kane is my name... like my father before me, I’m a working man" (which, of course, is originally from The Band’s "[The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down](cover/the-night-they-drove-old-dixie-down-joan-baez)) or Cait O’Riordan from the Pogues crooning, "My name is Jock Stewart, I’m a canny gun man" (from the traditional "[I’m a Man You Don’t Meet Every Day](cover/im-a-man-you-dont-meet-every-day-the-pogues)"). Joan Baez’s contralto can, if you squint your ears, pass as a farm-boy tenor; Cait O’Riordan’s chalky delivery might be that of a rich ponce.

After finishing the book, I made a [big Spotify playlist](https://open.spotify.com/playlist/5YQ4AyxQ6DeDxKJgSryAU2?si=e56f2c3d59fc4a00) for covers. Over time, the playlist got too unwieldy to manage, so I made this site. It's much nicer.
