Covers.

Most of the time you can't beat the original of any song - how the artist wrote it, how the artist intended it to sound.

But I've always been interested in 'covers' I like to hear different peoples' interpretations of the lyrics, of the emotion, and how a song can be altered in so many ways.

This in mind, here's a few cute ones:

Laura Marling & Eddie Berman - Dancing in the Dark (Springsteen)
