Rule: Cover classification

On this page

The “Cover” song type is used for re-recorded versions of a song.

(Applies to all finished song & artist entries)

A cover (カバー曲) is a re-recorded version of a song, usually by a different artist.

In the voice synth world, covers often use a different voicebank while keeping the instrumentals intact.

The “self-cover” tag is for songs where the original artist covered their own song.

Songs featuring only changed lyrics or added lyrics should also be marked as covers.

Note that cover entries tagged with the “out of scope arrangement” tag sound instrumentally different from the base entry.
