Ref: Most covered songs stats

Until now we only showed the all-time most covered songs:

... but now you can make your own time-related queries! This is the new filter:

Maybe you'd like to know what the most covered song is, of all songs first released in 1990?

attachment

Or the most covered song in released in the previous decade?

This fun and interesting new feature was suggested by dudek Smile

We need to clarify the "most covered by year" thing (or change it to behave how you describe). "Enjoy the Silence" was released in 1990 but we don't actually have any covers of that song from 1990 on the site - the earliest ones are from 1992...

Michael is right, the phrasing is wrong, this is about finding out "what the most covered 1990 song was" - Thanks anyway for this new stat...

Well, "Enjoy the Silence" was the most covered song first released (but not already covered) in 1990. Obviously, that's not (necessarily) the same as the song which was covered the most in the year 1990...
