When talented musicians cover other talented musicians’ creations, the songs take on a whole new extra-amazing life (when the cover is quality of course). And I’m sure like me, you have a list a mile long of your favorite covers and like my list, it’s growing every day. So I thought why not share a couple covers that show great respect to the original, and give that extra oomph to make it sound completely new and inspiring all over again. 

First off, Róisín Murphy covering Gossip’s “Standing in the Way of Control”. . . 

Next, Gossip covering Wham!’s “Careless Whisper”. . .

And finally, Wham! covering. . . oh wait. I don’t know of any covers they did that I like. . . do you? Would love to make this post come full circle, but well, there it is I suppose!
