My discover weekly no longer slaps, and my daily mixes are all the same stuff. Maybe the grass is greener on Apple Music? I remember like 5 years ago their algorithm was crap but enshitification hit Spotify pretty hard.

Seeing the Bye Bye Baby video for the first time in almost 25 years, it’s hard to understand why the suave lead singer, who was bound for great things, never broke through solo. Instead, the cute boy with the sheep hair became the “Prince of Pop”.

Is it really that easy as pointing the finger to “Justified” being a banger, a controversial Superbowl performance and him getting cozy quickly with people like Timbaland, P.Diddy, Nelly, The Black Eyed Peas and Pharrell Williams?

I've always loved Bob Dylan's "Don't Think Twice, It's Alright." The lyrics are lyrical yet the ultimate middle finger break-up song -- I mean, "you just kinda wasted my precious time?" I love the original, but was first introduced to the Peter Paul and Mary version. The Indigo Girls interpretation was my favorite for the longest time, but barely over Susan Tedeschi's. And, for giggles more than anything else, I tracked down a French language version by Hughes d'Aufray that I enjoy.

Anyway, for further giggles, I'm putting together a collection of covers, and am up to 152 version (caveat: many artists are represented with multiple versions as I decided to not worry about studio versus various live versions). The running time is up to 9 hours, 46 minutes, for whatever that information is worth.

I'm not at the end of the list (which has yet to be in sight), just taking a breather and listening what I've got so far (on random play--it seems the only fair way). This, though, has got me wondering:

What song has the most recorded covers?
