Imaginary Covers


This has nothing to do with electronic music per se, but I found it sort of interesting. The original poster recreated the underrated Pixes' track "Hey" as if Prince had done a cover of it. It's kind of interesting deconstruction of what makes a particular artist sound the way they do. What covers that never happened would you like to hear?

Beastie Boys cover Tears for Fears "Woman in Chains" or "Everybody Wants to Rule the World".

I want to see many of people covering other people like Frank Sinatra, Jr. doing my Lyrics but this is never possible when you can't get certain people to sing on a cover you want them to do or lyrics you sing, everything cost money but then again everyone has there prices....I'd say Depeche Mode doing a cover of any of DE/VISION songs because I like David Gahan's Voice more than Steffan, but I love De/Vision more than Depeche on certain songs.
