What is your favorite cover of a song?

[jamiexo]

So, I'm not one for covers most of the time. I tend to like originals of the song, and find it hard to get into the covers.

HOWEVER, this past weekend, my friend Harley showed me a cover of Stay which is originally sung by Kid Laroi and Justin Bieber. This cover is sung by Punk goes Pop, and I think I honestly like it better than the original. Video is posted below.

What's your favorite song cover?

So many good covers on all of the Pop Goes... albums, a lot of real shit but lots of really good ones too, absolute treasure trove if you're into pop punk


Can't post in a music thread without mentioning The Get Up Kids, they have an album called Eudora which is a few b-sides and a bunch of covers which are obv all great, Close To Me (originally by The Cure) is prob the best on there

The Cure often write songs that are done better by other bands as above, and The Smiths are the same. Hate Morrissey, like a lot of his songs done by other people. t.A.T.u's version of How Soon Is Now? is amazing

Miley Cyrus is great. You know what's even better? A Miley Cyrus song covered by CHER. Beautiful

It's always fun to belt out The Final Countdown, but it's even better when it's done by a weird Finnish melodic-speed-death-metal band

And let's finish with another pretty one because I really like Eels

Can't believe I forgot this cover of Anastasia's big hit Left Outside Alone after being obsessed with it for months and months around Eurovision

Beyonce did an amazing mashup of The Beautiful Ones by Prince and Sex on Fire by Kings of Leon at Glastonbury back in 2011

also obsessed with Harry Styles' cover of Girl Crush - remember downloading it and just listening to it on repeat for like an hour straight lol

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rroc2y9if_Q

aaaaaaaaand of course have to mention that time Harry Styles did a duet with Stevie Nicks of Landslide (one of my favourite songs EVER) - technically not fully a cover cause Stevie Nicks was there performing it but also technically counts because Harry Styles was also performing it but at the end of the day I worship Stevie Nicks and the ground she walks on so any opportunity to mention her, I will.

also the part where he just like breaks down like holy crap I'm singing with Stevie Nicks and nearly starts crying is a whole mood

ALSO THE ENTIRE ROCKETMAN SOUNDTRACK OF TARON EGERTON SINGING ELTON JOHN SONGS OK THANKS BYE.

The Mad World one is pretty ill tbh!

Although I'm kind of disappointed on finding out that this thread is not actually on cover arts so I still need to think on what to post
