Soft Covers and Female Vocalists
- Hold Me Tight (Scraps) Heard this track in in merrit kopas' HUGPUNX, a hugging simulator
- Black Horse and the Cherry Tree + Seven Nation Army (KT Tunstall) More acoustic covers... I had know idea KT Tunstall had that accent.
- Seven Nation Army (Vyvienne Long) A woman, a cello, a great cover.
- Toxic (Juliet Turner) Terrific acoustic cover of a pretty good song.
- Listen to Your Heart (Edmee's Unplugged Vocal Edit) (DHT) Shmaltzy, but I like it.
- Material Girl (Walk Off the Earth)
- Love Has Come for You (Steve Martin & Edie Brickell) Banjo and one of the sweetest voices in music.
- Techno Syndrome (Tha Immortals) MORTAL KOMBAT... (if it's good enough for Batman....)
- Shake a Lil' Somethin' (2 Live Crew) Really, Kirk?
- Timber (feat. Ke$ha) (Pitbull) The Cotton-Eye Joe for our time.
- Eine Kleine Nachtmusik (Kevin and the Octaves) After struggling to id this song that was in my head, I decided I preferred a shortened rock cover.
- Vato (Snoop Dogg featuring B-Real) About twice as long as it should be, but a nice loop.
- Woke Up This Morning (Vinne Pauleone and the Ba Da Bing Orchestra) Been on a Sopranos kick.
- Army Life (Leadbelly) I remember hearing this on M*A*S*H... and Leadbelly is an important figure.
- Stayin' Alive (Bee Gees) Had this in a few mashups, but the original is pretty good.
- Get a Job (The Silhouettes) My friend Zack in middle school sang a variation of this.
- Doo Wop (That Thing) (Lauryn Hill) Pretty cool video.
- Kids In America (Tiffany) Not sure why I liked Tiffany's version more than Kim Wilde's original.
- Caravan (Fanfare Ciocarlia) Saw these guys live at Johnny D's-- great brass band from Romania!
Too early to ask the Carroll vs Belichick thing? #kiddingithink
