I didn't get a clear picture of how you would enter a cover. Would the covering artist have an entry in the works list for the cover will an AR to the composition? If not, I don't think it's fair to say that a cover is necessarily a cover of a composition. It could be a cover of a specific performance (i.e., specific variation in lyrics, instrumentation, rhythm, or whatever else you could imagine).
