Fantastic – I enjoyed that far more than the originals the Mr Paltrow and his friends have released!

The cover of "fix you" was amazing!

I find it difficult to grade the songs when i don't really know the originals, and Coldplay, save for Yellow, is just a band that never interested me. still I enjoyed the show.

I'm glad you found a cover of The Scientist I haven't heard, and the Hunting High and Low cover was AWESOME. I recognized it as an a-ha tune right away!

Huh, gotta disagree with you here, Brian: The Lady Gaga performance was the most brilliant cover in this particular episode.

You missed the perfect opportunity to feature my big discovery at the Winnipeg Folk Festival this summer. The Abrams Brothers do an awesome cover of Viva La Vida. Although this video does not do justice to the live performance, it's still well worth watching (or featuring on a future show). http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VbydSxfYaLg

Don't ever play that Lady Gaga song ever again. That was horrible. Might be the worst song you've ever played. The rest of the episode was very good. Loved the acapella songs.

Great theme… Wonder if it might be possible to make your cover search more interactive. Not every song provides the episode number, or whether the song was on a bonus show or on the main show. Also, it would be great if you could link to an episode directly from the search queue rather than having to do a search on the site itself.

Your archive is impressive, and before I request something be played, I sort of want to be sure you haven’t played it before…
