You don’t need permission to cover a song! And the licensing is cheap, unless you’re making money. Then it can get pricey!

I once read where he regretted the attention the song brought him but at the same time he didn't mind the royalty checks. He sounded like just an average guy with some quirks that wasn't up for all the industry bs. He lives in Maine now and Buddha has had coffee with him a couple times.
