Longtime readers (and followers of me on Twitter) know I can’t resist a good YouTube clip, or a good tune. And sometimes I find something that meets both of those drives.
First up:
cdza create what they call “musical video experiments”, and here’s one called Pianists in Paris – seven players, one piano. Enjoy!
Kindof reminds me of the Walk Off The Earth version of Gotye’s Somebody That I Used To Know
And while you’re checking out unusual covers of modern songs, check out Aston – here they are covering Katy Perry’s ET.
If you’ve discovered some amazing covers, I’d love to take a look – link me up in the comments! x
I’m obsessed with Pentatonix – check out their cover of ‘We Are Young’: https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=Mn3Zkq9PP_Y.
Also, Boyce Avenue are amazing – my fave cover at the moment is ‘Someone Like You’: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HzC2-GJu1Q8&feature=plcp.
Love your work, Owen.
Well, I can’t get past this, Katy Perry – Hot and Cold (Cover), but I like the Walk off the Earth thing, that is clever.

I love this cover of “Umbrella” by the Baseballs. I actually think it is better than the original 🙂 The video that goes along with it is pretty sweet too! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DM2177pHMT0
