    332 - Blackbird - The CoverUp
    May 6 2024

    Welcome to the first week of Beyonce-May! We look at a song that’s simple and pretty, with deeper roots that aren’t exactly hidden, but also aren’t exactly front and center, and a cover that knows its history and knows where it’s going. Blackbird, originally by The Beatles, covered by Beyoncé (named Blackbiird in Beyoncé’s cover).

    Outro music is Daddy Lessons, also by Beyoncé featuring The Chicks.
