When looking at Grammy nominations for 2022, you might notice that there are a few cover songs nominated.

Country is one of the fields with the most covers winning. A few of the most recent wins have included “Gentle On My Mind” by The Band Perry (originally performed by John Hartford), “Wagon Wheel” by Darius Rucker...
