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...

Original- http://youtu.be/L0wCuwUneSM

Cover- http://youtu.be/9nHlwliWFi0

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 if you guys are into EDM, house, electronic music... bla bla bla hatever you wanna call it-
the act that has been all the rage this year is a duo called Disclosure. If you're kinda new to this type of music, and want a place to start, I highly suggest you stream their album "Settle" via youtube or wherever. It's not a mix. It's an album with songs that start/end.

One of the more popular songs from that album is called "White Noise". It's quite a banger, but the album is so good it's actually one of the weaker songs on it IMO. But the way DJs remix each other, re-edit, blablabla was actually done quite well.

The cover was done with male vocals instead of Aluna George (who sings in the original). So I actually like the cover better.

Give both a listen, and seriously listen to the album if you haven't yet. SUCH. A. BANGER!

I've never seen the band being covered present and in tears. Apologies if this was already posted but I just saw this for the first time.

Heart covering Led Zeppelin with Jason Bonham on drums. Get's real good at about 3:20 and special at 4:20.

oh my lord I just stumbled into a gold mine... for better or worse. At this point I pretty much have zero cred with you guys, but these are great covers of some current pop hits. This specific on is a doo wop cover of Miley Cyrus lol. Even if you hate the original, I think you'll like the cover-

Instead of giving you the original- I'll give you the really well-done acapella version done on Jimmy Fallon before linking the cover-

Fallon version-
