  • The Greatest Cover Songs of All-time: 6. Elvis Presley - "Hound Dog"
    2026/05/03
    Big Mama Thornton's 1952 "Hound Dog" was powerful R&B—woman calling out no-good man, fierce and funny. Written by white teenagers Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller for her. Hit #1 R&B, sold 500K copies. Big Mama paid $500 total while Leiber/Stoller made fortunes. 1956: Elvis heard it, sped it up, made it rock and roll, softened the edge. July 1956: #1 for eleven weeks on pop, country, AND R&B charts simultaneously. Helped define rock and roll, made Elvis a superstar. Big Mama got nothing—no new royalties, no acknowledgment. The most complicated cover: nobody purely villain or victim. Garrett Fisher explores structural racism, cultural appropriation, and uncomfortable truths about who profited from Black musical innovations.

  • The Greatest Cover Songs of All-time: 7. Cyndi Lauper - "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun"
    2026/04/26
    Robert Hazard wrote "Girls Just Want to Have Fun" in 1979 from male perspective—guy at party singing about girls who want fun with him. Philadelphia demo, never commercially released. 1983: Cyndi Lauper needed debut album material. Producer played her Hazard's demo. Her reaction: why would I sing a guy's perspective? Then realized: flip it. Make it female declaration, not male observation. Changed lyrics, shifted perspective to women claiming independence. September 1983: peaked #2 US, MTV icon, first VMA for Best Female Video. Became feminist anthem—women's marches still play it. Most people don't know it's a cover. Garrett Fisher explores how perspective shift transformed male fantasy into female empowerment anthem.

Then 22-year-old Australian actress Natalie Imbruglia needed debut single. Producer Phil Thornalley (co-writer) brought her the song. October 1997: #1 in multiple countries, #1 US Airplay, 11 weeks UK top 10, multi-Platinum globally, most-played song on Australian radio 1998. Launched her career, won MTV VMA. Most people don't know it's a cover. Ednaswap's original has fraction of streams. Garrett Fisher explores the ultimate cover replacing original in cultural consciousness.
