Covers

Yesterday on YouTube I spent about 20 minutes downloading different covers onto my phone. I found BBC Radio Live Lounge channel and discovered tons of different artists of today covering popular songs out now. My favorites are when they adapt the song into a completely different tempo and feeling. Bastille covered Miley Cyrus' song "We Can't Stop" and it sounds like another song entirely (I didn't like the song to begin with-- only Bastille's version). The Arctic Monkey's cover Drake, The 1975 covers One Direction (their adaptation is super unique), HAIM covers Miley Cyrus, the Kings of Leon cover Robyn, and so much more. This is the most exciting thing that has happened to me all week so here are some of many:

The Arctic Monkeys -- "Hold On, We're Going Home"


Queens of the Stone Age -- "Blurred Lines"



The 1975 -- "What Makes You Beautiful"
