 Great vocal - Dina Carroll could certainly sing.paulbaconsarnie said:Not So much bizarre and not sure if the link will embed but I really like Quartz version Of Carole Kings It’s too late, especially with Dina Carroll’s vocals.0

            Literally everything by Scary Pockets. Here's their funk version of Rocky Raccoon by the Beatles, ft George Krikes: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TmdG2U2c0NQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TmdG2U2c0NQ
 I think their best ones are If I Ain't Got You; Umbrella; thank u, next; and MMMBop amongst others.1

            This doesn't quite fit the remit of the thread but, bugger it, it's worth putting out there.
 Original vocal track but a new backing track: Slayer meets jazz ... https://youtu.be/r7-aduHx5bo https://youtu.be/r7-aduHx5bo

            Ohhhh, yeah. Let's get bizarre, with New Orleans second line outfit, the Hot 8 Brass Band, covering Joy Division's Love Will Tear Us Apart. Given the tradition of funeral music being upbeat in Nola, and the melancholy a lot of us will associate with the song, this... well, this works: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fBuTK-E0gxo https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fBuTK-E0gxo

 The Brockley Ukulele Orchestra used to play at The Amersham Arms a few years back. Their cover of Sexy Back was blinding.Stuart_the_Red said:

 Got to disagree. It's bland in the extreme whereas the original was such fun.kentaddick said:Can’t believe this hasn’t been posted yet

 It depends on whether you're posting from a desktop or phone/pad, if the latter then you just get the link.Algarveaddick said:
