Mr Blue Sky by the Freudian Slippers
I made this!
What with all this insanity from Madimir Putin we could do with some sunshine to brighten these dark days. Here's our lockdown cover of ELO's Mr Blue Sky - singalong and enjoy!

if anything it was a bit too note perfect, which is an accomplishment in itself to get that ELO sound nailed like you have
it might have been interesting to put your own spin on it

We'd been working this one up for live,
and took the challenge of getting as close to the original as possible. Started off simple then took off; I forget how many vocal tracks I put down - it was in 3 figures.
I take your point though, always good to put something new into a cover. The stuff we added to this (I think we added extra instruments into the outro, subtle stuff like that) doesn't really change the shape of the song.
