4 | A popular song (or even [[CoveredUp a nearly unknown one]]) has a cover version released. Rather than stick to the tone of the original, the band covering it decides to take it a different way. If the original was a happy song, it may be redone sarcastically or sadly. If the song was about the breakup of a relationship, it could be changed to being about the character's SanitySlippage. Either way, the meaning or the tone of the song is completely different in the cover version. |

6 | See also SofterAndSlowerCover. Can overlap with TheCoverChangesTheGender and RepurposedPopSong. Can also overlap with InTheStyleOf if the cover changes the tone or the style of the ''music'' as well. |

8 | Compare DualMeaningChorus, where the original song is written to offer up several different interpretations of its chorus. Not to be confused with ParodyDisplacement, in which a ''parody'' of a song becomes more popular than the original. If the new version becomes more popular, it may result in the original being CoveredUp. WhatSongWasThisAgain is when a translation of a song in a different language changes the meaning. When done with a song meant for small children, it's an IronicNurseryTune. Don't confuse with CoversAlwaysLie (as in the physical cover). |
