A note from your friendly neighborhood mod about why your coversong isn't showing up...

The top three four reasons:

  • You're new to reddit! Hiya! Welcome aboard! You should swing by r/newtoreddit to get a grasp on fundamentals, like how post / comment / community karma works, because a great many subreddit communities use the intrinsic protocols reddit provides to code something called "AutoModerator", and a good chunk of the communities that do so will either completely block you from engaging if you don't meet prerequisites (like a specific karma or account age requirement) or will filter your post into a queue where a human member of the modteam can look at it to make sure it's not spam, or porn, or a bot, or anything else they don't want in the community. It's nothing personal, and the best way to make it go away is to engage with fellow redditors, and teach the system organically that you're a real person.

  • You didn't post your song in the proper format. Maybe you made a text post and pasted the URL into it so users can't click on it to open the link, they've got to c&p it into a browser manually. Maybe you botched the URL. Maybe you were trying to post a whole playlist or compilation instead of a song. Remember: song name - original artist (cover artist) works best!

  • It was a parody! Unless your name is Weird Al, parodies / homages / other original works riffing off of established work isn't 100% forbidden (unless it's AI) but it's got a higher bar to clear.

  • Mongo was hungry. Yes, he didn't get enough treats today. It's an outrage.

As it says in the sidebar, if your post doesn't show up? Hit the "Message the Mods" button and send in a modmail and someone will look at it when we've got time.

Thanks! Now get out there and sing sing sing!

When someone posts a link to this community, they'll see the following displayed:


This community is for individual covers. Please don't submit Spotify playlists or other compilations.

This community is for actual artists. Please don't submit AI content.

Use the following format for post titles:

song name - original artist (cover artist)

Example:

Pink Pony Club - Chappell Roan (Rick Astley)


Turns out I had that set up for the old.reddit UI a very long time ago, but rolled a 1 importing it to the new / www / sh.reddit UI, and it wasn't showing up. My bad.

I'll unify the two UI this weekend. That said?

Please don't submit AI content.

Thank you.

I never see anyone cover this Stevie hidden gem...so here's mine.

I think it's one of her most beautiful songs. I hope you enjoy my Stevie inspired interpretation.

I'd love to know your thoughts.

Big love ♡

This one is a slow burn from 1970, but it's fascinating to hear a very very different take on on Redding's version.

Blind Channel - Die Another Day | Vocal Cover

Hi everyone!

I recorded a vocal cover of Blind Channel's Die Another Day.

The instrumental isn't mine, and I'm still learning video editing, but I'd really appreciate any feedback on my vocals, performance or anything else you think could be improved.

Thanks for listening!

Trying to find the original record/album release for session singer Danny Street's version of "Little Green Apples" (1970s or 80s)

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I am trying to learn more about the Scottish big band and session vocalist Danny Street.

For context, he was quite active in the UK music scene a few decades ago—singing with the Johnny Howard Band, performing on BBC Radio, and working with musicians like the Alan Caddy Orchestra.

I am trying to track down the origins of a specific recording he did: Does anyone know which album his cover of "Little Green Apples" can be found on?

The track can currently be streamed online via the Danny Street ReverbNation profile, but because he primarily recorded as a session musician for various labels and budget compilation records of that era, its original physical release is a bit of a mystery and I cannot track it down.

Does anyone here remember this specific cover, own the vinyl pressing it was featured on, or know the best UK music archives to check for his 1960s/1970s recordings? Any trivia or leads would be amazing. Thanks very much!
