Not all new music is really new, as many artists cover songs. Sometimes these are songs by their favorite artists, eg as a tribute to such a musical hero for a special reason, or they simply feel that a song deserves to be dusted and polished to reacquaint fans with great songs from the past. Other times, bands cover songs as a parody. Regardless of intent, some of those cover versions are so good or so much fun, we\u2019d like to put a spotlight on them. Chosen from a wide range, here are \u2013 in random order \u2013 ten of our favorite covers from last month \u2013 links to the pages where you can add them to your wantlist included.<\/em><\/p>\n

Shiny Happy People<\/a> || Cover: Micky Dolenz || Original: R.E.M.<\/strong>
\nMicky Dolenz, drummer and vocalists of legendary American pop\/rock band The Monkees, will release the 4-track EP Dolenz Sings R.E.M.<\/em> next month on 7A Records, produced by Christian Nesmith (son of Michael Nesmith). As R.E.M.’s Michael Stipe says: \u201cMicky Dolenz covering R.E.M. Monkees style, I have died and gone to heaven. This is really something. Shiny Happy People<\/em> sounds incredible (never thought you or I would hear me say that).”<\/p>\n
