This month, Farmville, Virginia native Oliver Anthony became an unlikely pop star, scoring the #1 hit on Billboard's Hot 100, with 'Rich Men North Of Richmond.' The bluegrass/country song speaks of crooked politicians and hard times, and the viral hit has really struck a chord with everyday Americans.
Your bushy-tailed correspondent wonders if he knows any songs popularized by other artists like that bluegrass band that does ACDC tunes. Maybe there are some REALLY UNLIKELY cover tunes he may have tried to learn that would really surprise his new fans.
From our home office in Bovey, Minnesota, here is The Top Ten Songs Oliver Anthony Would Probably Never Cover (Or Cover Songs That Would Surprise Us):
10, Call Me Maybe (Carley Rae Jepson)
