Cover me with chocolate



A lot of music fans despise covers. They can ruin a good song, but so can the artist, really. The video above is an example of a great cover, in my opinion. A weird re-imagining of a terrible, but unforgettably catchy tune. It's the whole reason I love covers. No matter what you think of a song, a lot of them will get stuck in your head and never really leave. I remember a ton of cheesy 80's hits, because the music shows always started after the cartoons. But everybody remembers a lot of terrible stuff. Essentially that's all you really want out of music in everyday life, something recognisable. And the great thing about the cover is that it also gives you something new, not always good, but often.
