Covers And Creativity

So previously I posted my own cover of Bad Romance. It isn't among the best production I know, but I'm planning on investing on a decent condensed microphone so I can eventually record better quality videos and songs. Now, I'm actually a huge fan of covers because people who put them together are really talented and creative. Some people made a fool out of themselves, some collaborated with musicians, some sang while playing ten other instruments, some did better than the original, these creative juices never cease to impress me and inspire me to do better!

Here are a few videos I find really inspiring and well, for lack of a better word - unique.


Tiffany Alvord singing a medley of Taylor Swift songs. I was NEVER a huge fan of Taylor, but after watching this I started to soften up. This is definitely one of the videos that make you go WOW.


Number Exchange's cover of Paparazzi. I don't understand why they're getting so little views when their cover is so awesome! I couldn't stop listening to this cover.


Singing Dork with a few of his friends singing their rendition of Empire State of Mind. This is pure talent and raw vocal. No fancy cinematic effects, just pure music performance.



Los Colorados doing a cover of Katy Perry's Hot'n'Cold. Well, they're pretty creative and added a twist to what we would conceive as pop music these days.

With so many talented musicians out here, it is mind boggling to distinguish yourself from the rest. But guess what? There's no limit to creativity, so keep those awesomeness coming!
