Modern Covers of Classics
I'm putting together a playlist of covers just because I'm a little bored of my current playlists. There are plenty of threads on this but I'm looking for more modern covers. Some examples I already have are:
Dancing in the Dark - Biz Colletti
Don't come around here no more - Rhianna Giddens
You Can't always get what you want - Lainey Wilson
Cindy I'll marry you some day - Robert Plant
Paint it Black - Wednesday Addams ( I know, weird, but compelling for some reason
Any suggestions?
I started looking at covers recently. Created two playlists. One with covers only- multiple for a song. And one, where each original is followed by one cover- the one in my view is the best (for me). Both of them might not have the modern covers as you seek. regards, Manu Covers: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/663PPh69ifr2hWFjePrQPO?si=UulPmvcPRZ-BsTyFAcL2HQ&pi=e-iii5N2M7QK-q Both: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/3xaS37mqfGEiZ5R9gcgbc2?si=xmAVpBClRxKp1zhk57Pc5g&pi=e-qjjF08t1R7uN

If anyone can appreciate punk covers of songs, Me First And The Gimmie Gimmies are a cover band doing everything from Elton John to Aretha Franklin to old movie songs like Over The Rainbow. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=tbK3dBdCVsE Just fun to listen to from time to time. |
Seu George's covers of David Bowie. Also Butterfly Boucher's cover of Changes that Bowie liked so much he dubbed in additional vocals on it. The Under the Covers series by Susanna Hoffs and Dave Matthews. There's always Bryan Ferry. If you're interested in more traditional interpretations of the Broadway-Hollywood-Tin Pan Alley repertoire the various Smithsonian songwriter anthologies will lead you to singers you might thought of.
