Hey Boomers! I enjoyed these pandemic performances and I thought you might, too.
A subdued Paul Simon sings "American Tune for Til Further Notice," an updated version of his always poignant classic. "The age's most uncertain hour" certainly rings true. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wVYPVvS-mI4
On a lighter note, Bob and Bethany Thies do "Day Drink Believer," a clever rewrite of the Monkees' pop hit from the 1960s:

Diane and Sam Vincent rework the classic "Baby, It's Cold Outside" for current times: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xmWangEfEM0
And Neil Diamond, in front of a blazing fire, sings a topical version of "Sweet Caroline": "Hands ... washing hands, reaching out, don't touch me, I won't touch you": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qxnETrhOIAE
