The Wellington International Ukulele Orchestra (also had/has? Bret McKenzie - Flight Of The Conchords as member) also does a great cover of The Bucket, for those who haven't heard about it :) I think it only got released on a selfreleased EP so... enjoy: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O3M-jjaHz9c

Oow, new KOL songs played live: weallwantsomeone.org/2010/06/12/live-videos-of-new-kings-of-leon-songs/ (major thanks Brvis)

That's what I'm hoping for too, I'm a huge statistics freak (but I think you guys might have noticed ^^). On the other hand, if that would be featured... I can't be here 25/7, now can I? XD

Xanadu said on Saturday, 29 May 2010:
Maybe this should on some sort of new statistics page... which does not exist yet.

DJ Anubis said on Saturday, 29 May 2010:
Thought about it, didn't do it yet, but it might be better to use 20 or even more for samples... Remember: you can start whatever tag you want (but keep em logical and useful :) + 20 or more is almost usable for covers too (yesterday has more than 20 now i think + a few others)

@Xanadu Is that really necessary?

Xanadu said on Saturday, 29 May 2010:
Sorry to be spamming, but is there a similar tag for tracks that got sampled more than 10 times?

Xanadu said on Saturday, 29 May 2010:
@Anu: wow, it took 17 years before a record got covered over 10 times, 17 years!

DJ Anubis said on Friday, 28 May 2010:
@ DrPepper LOL just enjoy whatever you add mate ;) @ Xanadu major thanks... The next song having more than 10 covers is currently Nirvana's Smells Like Teen Spirit (1991!) Have a look http://www.whosampled.com/song-tag/More%20Than%2010%20Covers/covered/1/

Xanadu said on Friday, 28 May 2010:
Found one more Use Somebody cover that is officially released. Other covers on YouTube of which I couldn't find release details: Nick Jonas & The Administration, Craig David, Nickelback, Kelly Clarkson... this song is on everybody's list really.

Drpepperfan said on Friday, 28 May 2010:
I'll take that as a no.

DJ Anubis said on Friday, 28 May 2010:
Make it 10 covers in less then a year and a half (in this millenium :p), thx Xanadu ;)

DJ Anubis said on Friday, 28 May 2010:
I think I just threw up a little

Drpepperfan said on Friday, 28 May 2010:
Probably, but are you sure you don't want me to upload their amazing cover of Call Me? :)

DJ Anubis said on Friday, 28 May 2010:
I was afraid of that, would it help if I said I liked you better when you were adding the Quartet covers? ^^

Drpepperfan said on Friday, 28 May 2010:
Oh, I'm not done with the Chipmunks yet. Muahahaha! >:)

DJ Anubis said on Friday, 28 May 2010:
I just think it's remarkable for this day & age... back in the day it was quiet usual to get 50 cover versions quickly after the single got released, not even including translations... You do know I'm kidding right? btw: that excuuuuuse me in connection with your avatar is just hilarious :D

MrBlondNYC said on Friday, 28 May 2010:
Oh excuuuuuse me.

DJ Anubis said on Friday, 28 May 2010:
Hmm, didn't realise Yesterday was released just two years ago ^^ (I used those words for a reason). And no thanks, we got bigger fans of Beatles on here + I got far worse things to add now that our friend DrPepper has enough of his Chipmunks ;)

MrBlondNYC said on Friday, 28 May 2010:
The Beatles' Yesterday was covered at least 50 times within a year of its release. They're not all here though so... get to work Anubis!

Xanadu said on Friday, 28 May 2010:
All Use Somebody covers are dated 2009, the original came out on 8 December 2008 according to Wikipedia. It took some time to chart and then a little more to for people to record their own version. But it's a great accomplishment! Now let's wait for more covers in the future.

DJ Anubis said on Friday, 28 May 2010:
Can someone find me ANY other artist that got covered 9 times on a song released just two years ago, believe me... that's impressive!
