December Cover Challenge Voting Time X's in the boxes

[lurksalot]

 

Its Showcase time ... or at least copy someone else time,  as December is traditionally the challenge of presenting a cover, a new one specifically recorded, or any that had been recorded this year.

A faithful attempt at the original, a minimalist approach or a radical re-imagining but based on another song or tune.

 

here are the entries showing their...
