A Couple of Covers

Oh how I love when artists cover songs and put a new twist on them. After that Natasha Bedingfield post, I have to post these three covers I ran into a while ago.

Steady As She Goes (The Ranconteurs cover) - Corinne Bailey Rae



With Or Without You (U2 cover) - Keane



I Want You Back (Jackson 5 cover) - Discovery



I'm an Artist Pusher: Natasha Bedingfield

Natasha Bedingfield gained a lot of attention with her 2004 release, Unwritten. Since her original work is pretty well known, I thought I'd share a couple of the covers she has done that I like from her collection.

Somewhere Only We Know (Keane cover)


Ray Of Light (Madonna cover)


P.S.

I had to post my favorite video of hers:

These Words


I have watched this video so many times its sickening.



I'm an Artist Pusher: DJ Earworm

DJ Earworm came out with a new mash-up today!!!

Jessy Mash J'Adore - DJ Earworm featuring Jessy Matador


Here's a link to DJ Earworm's YouTube Channel. Everyone knows him from his United States of Pop mash-up (most notoriously 2009's Blame It On The Pop), but he also does smaller mash-ups, like one of my favorites:

Free At Night - DJ Earworm featuring Nelly Furtado


P.S.

United State of Pop 2011 (World Go Boom) - DJ Earworm


Sorry, I couldn't resist from adding this. It's the mash-up from last year's hit singles.

Brand New Key

Brand New Key - Melanie Safka


I first heard this song as a cover version on Katharine McPhee's. I liked the song, so I researched it and found Melanie Safka. I love this version waayy better.

Oh and it ranks at number 3 on this Top 5 Stalker Anthems list. Remember, I like creepy things. Don't hate.
