    A fat guy on YT does an amazing cover of 'Closer' (Kings of Leon. Whom I loathe - but that song is a masterpiece). Sitting on his bed in his pokey little bedroom. Voice like pebbles in a velvet bag.

    A Finnish cover band that does an interesting job on popular rock songs. Here is a Metallica song. Once the song ends, scroll around YouTube and see some of their other work.

    This song is 'a local song'


    and my favourite band in the whole world covered them when I was 6.


    I was older when I learnt that this song's local to me.. That was cool. :)

    Depends how you choose to define "cover". Usually a "cover" is an "updated" version of an older song, but in my opinion using the melody but changing the lyrics is to be considered a cover too and thus even parodies fall under "cover songs".

    Well, I consider a cover song to be a serious cover of the song and a parody is a parody of a song, changing lyrics or making fun, etc.

    Great talent. Must say it is sad she's now grown up to become a spoiled, snarky little brat of a semi-international pop-princess. She was once so cute lol. :(
