    444 - Heaven Is A Place On Earth - The CoverUp

    A song that reestablishes a seasoned and successful artist as a new kind of force, and a cover that embraces musical complexity in a brilliant but subtle way. Heaven Is A Place On Earth, originally by Belinda Carlisle, covered by The Mayries.  Outro music is I Wanna Dance With Somebody (Who Loves Me), by Whitney Houston, because this song is inevitable.

    443 - Life Is A Highway - The CoverUp

    Great lessons to learn from one of the all-time road songs, a cover that understands the assignment more than the song — oh, and Rich flubs his kids' birthdays, but that's OK, because we only recorded this on Father's Day. Life Is A Highway, originally by Tom Cochrane, covered by Rascal Flatts.  Outro music is Another One Rides The Bus by Weird Al Yankovic.

    439 - Call Me Maybe - The CoverUp

    Absolute pop genius from a song that wasn't supposed to be pop at all, and a cover that's a terrible fit which helps to make it even more awesome. Call Me Maybe, originally by Carly Rae Jepsen, covered by Leo Moraccioli. Outro music is We Are Young, by Fun, just to remind you that the bar was high in 2012.

    438 - Sultans of Swing - The CoverUp

    A brilliant debut single that defied genre, expectation, and the industry it was breaking into, and a cover that takes it a bit literally, but nails it anyway. Sultans of Swing, originally by Dire Straits, covered by Pink Turtle.  Outro music is Brothers in Arms, also by Dire Straits.

    437 - Wrecking Ball - The CoverUp

    A massively popular yet still underrated song by an incredibly talented yet still underrated artist, and a cover that takes on an impossible task and winds up still on their feet. Wrecking Ball, originally by Miley Cyrus, covered by Abandoning Sunday.  Outro music is Piece of My Heart by Janis Joplin.
