CoverAge is a podcast in which music aficionados Tony and Mike dissect and analyze covers - specifically studio recordings of covers.

Mike and Tony rate the creative contribution of the cover artist on a scale from -3 to 3 while battling tangents, random story time, and other complete non sequitur which interrupts their incredibly short attention spans.

Rating Scale:-3: You have made the world a worse place by covering this song

-2: You ruined the original of this for me, in a bad way

-1: You tried to or succeeded in accurately recreating the original

0: You played this song in your signature style

1: You brought something new to the song above just playing it in your style.

2: You brought a new meaning or way of looking at the song to it.

3: You stole the song. Your version is now the archetype of the song.
