Coverville

For today's word we turn to a special guest Brian, host and producer of Coverville. Given that clue I bet you can guess today's word is cover. Let's skip the common definition and go straight to the podcast community's resident expert on covers.

Brian's definition:

Any song that was performed and released by one artist or group, and then was subsequently released or performed and recorded by another artist or group. I also include a song that was released by the same artist, but performed with a different arrangement or style.

Yes, the song Happy Birthday is is protected by copyright.
