Re: Most covered song?

Little Wing has been covered a lot. And Knocking on Heavens Door. And almost every newly started rookie-teenage-band plays Blink 182 and Nirvana... At least up here...

Re: Most covered song?

It has to be some classic blues tune. Maybe what stratman said.

Re: Most covered song?

For a while there I was collecting covers of Little Wing. I have 12 different versions in my collection....
