I am a big fan of indie covers of top 40 songs. I like how they are able to strip down a heavily produced song and reinvent the music into something worth listening to and in some cases change the way you see the song. Lately, there's been a surge of these-- so, here are a few favorites.
Sia- Cooler Than Me (Mike Posner Cover)
Samuel- Find Your Love (Drake Cover)
Neon Trees- Baby (Justin Bieber Cover)
And some Kid Cudi covers:
Lissie- Pursuit of Happiness
Barbara- Pursuit of Happiness
This isn't a top 40 cover, but the most inventive cover on this list:
Blackbird Blackbird- Float On (Modest Mouse cover)
