Default Too Early to cover

I get pissed off when people say things like "its too early to cover this song" because I think people (i.e. kids) think it can only be done if you reach back into the vault 20 years.

horse****, in the 60's people used to cover songs immediatly to pay homage. Otis Redding covered satisafaction by the stones months after it came out (and was obviously still ahit.)

Im writing this because The White Stripes covered Walking with the Ghost by Tegan and Sarah as a B-side and the iTunes reviews say things to the effect of

"i don't know I mean this song came out too early, this song was recorded this year"

WTF kind of review is that, I didn't ask for your producer two cents, was it good.

What do you guys think?
