I'll get this one out of the way early, as I'm not sure that it qualifies as a cover.
Just like the FDA will pull vats of condensed chicken soup if they find a certain percentage of rat turds by volume, there may be a "CTRSBCACSATPC," or "Can This Really Still Be Considered a Cover Song At This Point Commission," that compares the "cover" with the original.
And, when it comes to this cover, anyhow, Gordon Lightfoot is a total honey badger.
Change the chord progression here and there for no reason? Honey badger.
Mispronounce the most populated town in Monterey County because reasons? Honey badger.
Rewrite whole verses, sometimes into indecipherable word salad? Check.
But, when you sound like Gordon Lightfoot, I guess you get a pass.
He always gets a pass. Which is probably why he's such a honey badger.
