Wait a minute here, hold on. Is someone beating me in the quantity department? Quality, sure, I understand. But quantity? Unacceptable.
To be perfectly clear, someone (me) is beating you in the quantity of points department but not in the quantity of songs department. I deviously gamed the bonus system to overtake your 8-song point total with just 5 songs. And I'm still at the top of the leaderboard after your really cool Lord of Oats cover.


And I hate to lessen my lead, but: whenever you get around to updating the leaderboard, please remove my "Quick 0.5" bonus for Look At The Sky. That was a PFJr bonus song (a stiffed song) that had been assigned to someone else 5 months prior.
That was me.

I still have it bookmarked.

Noah McLaughlin's "Bag Of Bones" as requested. You can hear it/get here - https://www.johnnycashpoint.com/songs/jc_bob.mp3

Is it really almost SEVEN YEARS since I took this on this challenge ? Well, I finally got round to it. I did have to reimagine it to fit my style, though the chords and words are correct as I got them from source.

Next one please! i'll try not to take so long this time. Though no promises.

Awesome! I've added your cover to the page. I'm going to need some time to get you your next cover, because the Jukebox is down and that's what I was using to get the random songs.

In the meantime, I can choose random songs from the archive! How about:

Jonathan Mann - If I Had One

I mean, anybody can choose them, but, that's not how the game is played. :P

To be clear, I used a randomizer to pick it. Same as what the sfjukebox random function does. "Choose" was a poor choice of word on my part.

I assume you're trying to be helpful, so thanks, but it's really not necessary, I've got it. Here's what came up for j$:

"Mean to Me" by Hot Tub Combo

Glad you got it sorted out! In any case, the tool is there in case anyone wants to use it for whatever other reason. It's fun to choose random songs to listen to.
