Hello Steemit!

As you may know , I usually make my #coverasteemian updates on weekends and last week was surely a cool one for this initiative! as we had some really cool covers showing up and they just made my day a little better when I heard them, this was the last update: https://steemit.com/coverasteemian/@pechichemena/cover-a-steemian-update-25-3-2018-new-entrants-sbd-transfers-song-pool-update So , before I head on to the actual challenge that the good @passion-ground is sponsoring below #coverasteemian I want to give a couple shout-outs: First, a huge shoutout to @luzcypher for being so supportive of this initiative , I've seen him upvoting some of the #coverasteemian entries and I thank him a lot for that, he is a role model for me in this platform and I look up to him and his Open Mic Contest , in which I participate and support regularly! So , if you haven't joined the Open Mic , we are on Week #78 , come join us and share some music :)! https://steemit.com/openmic/@luzcypher/steemit-open-mic-week-78-record-your-performance-and-win-steem-sponsored-by-pfunk-and-luzcypher ![](https://steemitimages.com/DQmNU41f7DZxipNBerrr6xDBkSEJF7k91JM4g9VcyYsUdwj/image.png) Also , please vote for @pfunk as a witness, as some may know , he is the main sponsor of the Open Mic contest and he just slipped to place #21 in the Witness ranks , it is ***very important*** to keep him on the top 20 so he can keep giving his full support to the Open Mic contest as he has been doing up until this point. @passion-ground made a post with links explaining how to vote , give him a visit: https://steemit.com/openmic/@passion-ground/calling-all-open-mic-people-check-this-out Now let's get to the challenge!:

''Cover a Steemian @passion-ground challenge.''

As I said before , last week was a very cool one for #coverasteemian since we had @tarotbyfergus , the guy who inspired the whole initiative cover @passion-ground , another steemian who is one of the biggest supporters of the whole Steemit music community with a very cool rendition of ''You know it's me'' by Passion. This was the entry: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zzXMI7CbJy0 @passion-ground got such a kick and joy out of it he contacted me to set a little contest/challenge which he is going to be sponsoring, and of course I said yes to him!

@passion-ground will be giving away 10SBD to the first 10 Steemians that cover one of his original songs!

Of course we don't want ''quickly done'' entries just for the money, so if you decide to cover one of Passion's songs, please, make an honest effort to deliver you best performance! ***Also, Passion will give out a special shout-out on his weekly Open Mic official posts to whoever covers one of his songs.*** So , what's the song list?
