Second-Hand Songs is a collaborative website that maintains a global database of mainly cover versions of original works.
It includes links to freely accessible recordings of the covers, and external identifiers for those works and performances in other databases.
As of 2021, it included roughly a million covers of 100,000 original works.

Dang, Bret, ya made my ears bleed! 🤯 For years now when I compared cover songs, I've always started with Unchained Melody. So I just hit your link and... wow, over 500 covers of it. Cool! UNTIL I chose to hear one of my favorites, Conway Twitty sing it. Worst version I've heard. And *then* glutton for punishment that I am, I tried to listen to Sonny & Cher get through it. Tried and failed. Oy!

I find it one of the really great web sites.
1 million covers, and that was 4 years ago.

@Bretrick , am I remembering that you have a thread somewhere for only cover song videos? Or was that someone else? I know I posted in it, but I can't find it. Let me know the link if you do, because I just found a cover via secondhandsongs that has given me shivers and I'd like to share it.

You Tube is my site for just about anything. I use it to learn how to put things together, to watch shows from a long time ago (My favorite is Stupid Pet Tricks and Jungle Jack Hanna on David Letterman), and I like to watch pod casts on it. Just about anything you're interested in is on it.
