unfortunately, you'll need to remove the cover songs from ArtistServer.
We are located in the US, and the copyright laws requires that you first obtain the legal rights to release a cover song on the Web or distribute it in any manner. This usually requires you to contact the Harry Fox Agency, search for the song, make arrangements, pay a fee, and obtain some form of documentation.
Once you have the documentation, you can submit a copy to ArtistServer, then be able to upload the cover songs. Keep in mind that ArtistServer provides music downloads for free, so if you are required to pay for each copy you distribute, it is your responsibility to track the amount of downloads and pay the fees on your own.
I'll check back later today and if the cover songs aren't off yet, I'll have to remove them from the site.
Sorry man! 
Do you have any tunes you've composed that you can upload?
Regards,
Gideon / Site Admin

Hey Gideon
are you happy to stream cover songs once I have a mechanical license?

yes - just email me a scan or photo so I have a copy on file if anyone asks. Best to include some info on the license w/in the song description too.
Thank you for asking  I hope all is well!
