Foxes covered not one but two tracks on Dermot O’Leary’s BBC Radio 2 show; Drake’s “Hold On We’re Going Home” and Eminem and Rihanna’s “The Monster”. If only her singles were this good..

Ella Eyre – Black and Gold (Sam Sparro Cover)
Ella Eyre performed a stunning cover of Sam Sparro’s “Black and Gold” in the BBC Live Lounge recently and you can watch it below. It’s further evidence of this young lady’s talent and I know that I;m not alone when I say that I can’t wait to hear her album! Previously: Ella Eyre Continue Reading
Gorgon City – Doing It Wrong feat Liv and MNEK (Drake Cover)
Drake’s “Doing It Wrong” was given a touch of some UK Garage vibes thanks to Gorgon City, Liv and MNEK. Check out their rendition of Drake’s “Doing It Wrong” from their recent visit to the BBC Live Lounge below. Previously: Gorgon City – Ready For Your Love ft. MNEK (Video)
Neon Hitch – 301 To Paradise (Mixtape)
It’s been a long while since I first stumbled across Neon Hitch’s music and it’s a shame considering how good it is that she hasn’t yet released an album. 301 To Paradise is a brilliant reminder that Neon’s still got it – with ‘it’ being bags of talent. Hopefully when Continue Reading
Rocky Nti – Look Right Through (Storm Queen Acoustic Cover)
Dropout UK live sessions are usually pretty decent and they haven’t failed to disappoint with their latest instalment. Rocky Nti took on Storm Queen’s “Look Right Through” and gave it an acoustic indie feel, which surprisingly worked – wonderfully!
Lexie – Do What You Want (Lady Gaga Cover Video)
21 year old Lexie gives Lady Gaga a run for her money with her acoustic rendition of the star’s latest single “Do What You Want”. But that’s not all, Lexie also throws in a cover of Amy Winehouse’s “Tears Dry On Their Own”. This is one hell of a promising Continue Reading
Peace – Last Christmas (Wham Cover)
Peace’s cover of Wham’s festive classic “Last Christmas”, might just be better than the original. What do you think? The band have just started their UK Tour and you can find details regarding dates and venues on the band’s website Paceforeverever.co.uk/shows. Previously: Peace – Bloodshake
Lips – Nightcall (Kavinsky Cover Video)
Lips’ in studio cover performance of their cover of Kavinsky’s “Nightcall” is pretty damn good! It’s a little faster and has a bit more energy to it but Lips’ rendition but still retains the 80’s feel of Kavinsky’s original. Check it out below.. Video by Toby Ricketts.
Cleo Sol – Buying Her Way To Heaven
“Buying Her Way To Heaven” is another example of Cleo Sol’s brilliant talent. The song is actually a mash up of four songs! Led Zeppelin’s “Stairway To Heaven”, Matt Morris’ “Bloodline”, City High’s “What Would You Do” and Shirley Bassey’s “Diamonds Are Forever”. Cleo is a don when it comes to covers! Continue Reading
Bastille – Of The Night (Video)
Bastille’s interpretation of Corona’s “Rhythm of The Night” doesn’t quite match up to the original but it’s not bad. “Of The Night” is available to download now on iTunes. Video directed by Dave Ma. Previously: Bastille – Laura Palmer (Video)
