Well I was talking in more general terms about covers as well, about how people (including on this board if you look at threads about them) seem to denigrate covers as just ripping off the original instead of looking at it as being creative in its own right often. Covers can actually bring attention to a little known original song which would have languished otherwise, or made an old song in a new guise available to a whole new audience.
