I’m trying to find a female artist I heard do Randy Newman’s “Love Story (You and Me).” It may be Emiliana Torrini. If not, someone who sings like that…but more importantly:

I’m pretty sure I used to use allmusic for that kind of search and it would easily give a list. I may be using the search engine wrong now but its not doing it for me. Just giving me a bare handful of results.

anyone know a good site for cover searches like that?

Allmusic was the first thing I though of (though I haven’t used the site in years)…if it isn’t working for you, you might try the iTunes store.

Thank you.

And I figured out that it was Peggy Lee.

Cool. I was able to submit a song that the project didn’t have.
