We asked . . . What is YOUR favorite Garth Brooks song.  The overwhelming winner was 'The Dance!"  Now, I was fully prepared to post up a countdown featuring Garth performances of the top five vote-getters!  But you know Garth!  If he can't sell it at Wal-Mart you aren't going to get it!  So, since we can't nab video of Garth singing his biggest hit, I thought it would be fun to search the web for some whacked out covers of it.  And, oh dear Lord!  Look what I found!

Among Dunn’s more interesting recent influences: “I love Harrison’s slide guitar on ‘Something,’” the singer told Taste of Country.

Dunn has of course been impactful in his own wide-ranging way, and the wild diversity of Brooks & Dunn covers on YouTube are a pretty-great sample of his influence. Among the YouTube treasures we unearthed: a rocker girl singing a heartfelt cover of B&D’s ‘If You See Her, If You See Him’; a ukelele-toting troubadour singing his dog to sleep with ‘Neon Moon’; and a near-perfect bedroom rendition of ‘My Maria.’ Check ‘em out and more below, and don’t forget to sign up to see and meet Ronnie Dunn in Yakima, WA on June 21!
