You'll figure out what she's covering immediately. Just keep an open-mind

Guys... I'm being serious with this one. And I deserve all the grief that you wanna give me, but in my opinion Bruno Mars has one good song-
"When I was your Man"
Gimme all the **** you want for that, but if Justin Timberlake is a guilty pleasure for a lot of you, liking a Bruno Mars song isn't that much of a stretch from that. So ok. Original-

I love this cover. Sooo good. You may have to turn up the volume a little bit on it though.

they had me at 300 lb Elvis impersonator fronting a reggae led zeppelin tribute band.

I went to see them many years ago at the coach house in san juan capistrano. outside of a theoretical tom waits impersonator that's pretty much the extent of any dedicated cover band i'll ever see.

****... forgot to do this one yesterday too (was too busy watching the Vikings embarrass themselves)- Not Bruno Mars. But once you hear the original , you'll be surprised who pulls off a very good cover-

Bruno Mars is okay in my book for the excellent unofficial video to "The Lazy Song."

When the video plays, there's a box that says, "Want to see the original version? Click here!" and I think, why on earth would I do that when there is this one?

Because I'm a young'n that doesn't know any better, for the longest time time I actually thought the cover was the original. Both the orignal and the cover are very good. But I think most people actually know the cover more than the original. You'll see below-

Once again- This is one where I knew the cover better than the original. I like both versions. I also had no idea that Dionne Warwick was ever a fine piece of a...

By the way- The movie "Dead Presidents" wasn't that good, but it had a great soundtrack.

Actually, Aretha also had a great cover as well-

So Sam Smith may have done an equally awesome cover as the one he did for Bruno. Wow! Amazing!
