Happy Birthday Bowie! We've been sprinkling in songs from David Bowie's vast career all morning long. So, we thought that for today's Coffee Break we would switch it up a little bit and hear from other artists trying their hand at covering a David Bowie song.

What covers of David Bowie songs would you like to hear for the 9:30 Coffee Break?

Are you a member of MPR? Want to go to the Birthday Party? Join us at The Depot this morning starting at 11am. We'll be there to hang out with prizes, live chats with Barb Abney, and, of course, the first chance to pick up tickets to The Current's Birthday Party.

M. Ward - "Let's Dance"

Nirvana - "The Man Who Sold the World"
