Every year I entertain the thought of adding some extra categories to the Top 25 on MVY.
We do the Top 25 albums.
And for the last several years, we've done the Top 5 singles of the year. But I haven't been able to marshal the forces necessary to come up with some other mini-lists, like "Comeback Of The Year" or "Collaboration Of The Year."
On the surface they are great ideas, but it would take more research than I have time for, to put together a candidates list.
One possibility near and dear to my heart, would be "Cover Song Of The Year."
I do a set of Live Acoustic and Cover tunes every day, so I'm always on the hunt. But the list of possibilities is so broad, I'd hesitate to make a list meant to represent MVY for fear of missing some great cover.
That being said, along with The Slide Brothers doing "Praise You," Sarah Jarosz taking a crack at another Bob Dylan tune is one of my favorite covers of the year.
Hear the song on Youtube.
