Have you heard any cover songs out there (by artists unknown or otherwise) that have impressed you? If so, share them.



Another by them



This group is called Pentatonix, they are an acapella group and won a reality TV show I believe... but these two covers by them really impressed me a lot. Every sound and note in the songs are their own voices.

Killing me softly - Fuggees
Being a kid of the 90s I remember this song as an absolute monster hit and I still love it very much to this day.
I never knew the original before the cover came out but I like that one a lot too.
Though I actually dare say I prefer the cover.



Bohemian Rhapsody - The Braids
I know I get stoned for this but the reason I like this cover is that it focuses on the nice parts of the song. I like the original but seriously what is the whole Galileo shit about? It totally ruins an otherwise amazing song.
*quickly runs for cover*

This girl on youtube, with "love the way you lie" is amazing...love when she sings the rap...worth a listen

Lisa Scinta

Love this cover of Alejandro

I know I've posted songs by him before, but I just love Sam Tsui's cover versions

I fell in love with Gabe Bondoc covering I Remember by Keyshia Cole:


Some tributes:

Surprisingly heartfelt cover, and music video.



And this video seems a bit like they spun Ozzy around in a blindfold and unleashed him in Times Square, but it's still a great cover. Major points to whoever arranged it for going all "Stairway to Heaven" at the end.

Lotte Kestner is an amazing songwriter in her own right, but this is lovely:




The brilliant Fiona Apple takes this Elvis Costello track to another level:



Steffallo covering Cher's Believe



The Bird and the Bee covering Rihanna

Nice.

Quite like these guys.

Impressed by this on some level.

Cat Power is one of my favourite musicians in general, but she does some mean covers as well. I like this one:

YG, who is that guy, he's amazing

I guess one of my personal favourite's is Ryan covering this Oasis classic..



recently I heard this cover of the David Bowie song, I like a lot..

Given today's date...

I really love that Wonderwall cover.

you Blake

makes me want to cut myself...

I love The Frays cover of Heartless by Kanye West and also anything Boyce Avenue do.

I love all of Lissie's covers that she's done.

Especially this more recent one.

That Lissie song is a btnaing tune. Yes it is.

Absolutely, it's an amazing cover:

Just heard this tonight. It is magnificent. Cover of In The End by Linkin Park
