After-midnight coversong-a-palooza.


Last night I was fiddling with blip.fm when I realised that they had changed the search interface to include youtube videos. The song I posted was a cover song so I decided to dig into my mp3 collection of almost 30 thousand for my favourite cover songs.

I came up with this list in no particular order (songs will bring you to blip):

  1. Pastel Vespa – Living on a Prayer
  2. Jonathan Coulton – You Oughta Know
  3. Obadiah Parker – Hey ya
  4. Paramore – My Hero
  5. Scala & Kolacny Brothers – Smells Like Teen Spirit
  6. Zebrahead – Wannabe
  7. Kaiser Chiefs – I Heard it Through The Grapevine
  8. The Mike Flowers Pops – Wonderwall
  9. Ben Folds Five – She Don’t Use Jelly
  10. Presidents of USA – Video Killed The Radio Star

Can you create a top 10 cover list of your own?

  • I'd have to put in Ben Folds' cover of "Tiny Dancer" (by Elton John) way up there. Possibly Darren Hanlon's cover of "Don't Stop" (by Fleetwood Mac)... oh and Ben Folds' cover of "Such Great Heights" (by The Postal Service)... hmm, what else...
