Apologetix - I Have To Die First (cover of Survivor's 'Eye Of The Tiger')
I promise that you'll feel pumped at the end of this one. If they'd played this at Sunday School I'd have paid more attention.
Picasio vs Survivor - Rising Up Craig David
Ok, another 'Survivor' cover, but this is just an amazing bootleg mashup of Craig David's '7 Days' and Survivor's classic. Picasio did one other thing, a version of the Axel F theme, but since, nothing. He's extremely deft if you like this sort of thing.
Faye Wong - Dream Person (cover of The Cranberries 'Dreams')
I love Faye Wong's stuff. Most is original, but she does the occasional cover and this one beats the socks of the original. She had a bit of mainstream western breakthrough with 'Eyes On Me' which was used for one of the Final Fantasy cartoons http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N8uXWMNriio.
Laura Nyro - Up On The Roof
No YouTube link... I love this version of this song. One of my all time favourites, TBH.
