Os covers já são um prato presente nos grandes menus dos álbuns. Porém, com a pandemia e o confinamento forçado, muitos artistas se organizaram e trabalharam em versões de modo remoto.
Com uma gigante gama de opções, o Loudwire escolheu trinta regravações feitas este ano que merecem ser conferidas. Vale citar que o site não elaborou uma classificação, apenas os foi colocando sem sequência pré-determinada.
