This is awesome cover. She sings really good and the piano sounds awesome. I like that she slowed down the tempo and made the song her own. The piano is maybe a bit loud but that doesn't really matter.

Super Mario

2011-03-09T07:21:00.000-08:00

Everyone likes Super Mario, right? Yeah, I know you do, and that's why you should check out these covers!

The last cover is a Drum cover. This guy, called Vadrum, really owns. He has really got the skillz, and he is very fast with the sticks.
He has got maaany vids and most of them are really good, and that's why almost all of them has got over 10 million views.

The second cover is a bass cover. The guy is playing the actual bass of the theme, and it sounds pretty good. Nothing special, but good! The vid has got 48,5k views.

He call himself Picture

The last cover is a guitar cover. This vid has over 35 million views, and it's crazy. ZackKim, as the guy call himself, plays the super mario theme on two guitars. It sounds pretty good, but I don't think the content is worth 35million views. It's good but not that good.

My Happy Ending

I choose to post this clip because it's just awesome. I got pretty much speechless after the chorus, it's just Amazing.. ((=

Our first bass cover

2011-03-06T08:59:00.000-08:00

Finally our first bass cover, and a great one too!

Look at this guy, he's truly amazing. He has got the skillz, and he has got the feeling. I have nooo idea why this cover only got like 5k views, because it deserves soo much more than that.

He has got plenty of covers, but I think this is one of the better.

When the lights go down

2011-03-06T07:35:00.000-08:00

This is a cover by Hilde Losvik, she is 16 and she is from Finland.

She is singing the Faith Hill song ''When the lights go down''.

Here's a link to her blog: http://hildelosvik.blogspot.com/

Her voice is just awesome and that's pretty much why I like this cover. She is a really good singer and I really enjoy listening to her voice. The looks she gives shows that she lives up to the music.

The cover:

920 000 has already seen the clip but I think it deserves more.

Why do I like this clip?

The piano playing is awesome. You get the feeling that he's improvising a lot and plays by feel.

They are both really good singers. Individually they both sing just great and they fit good together. Even if they not give each other any looks it still feels like they have a good chemistry.

The audio of the camera they are using is also really good.

Wtf....

2011-02-23T04:37:00.000-08:00

Yeah, well this is going to be one of these "Wtf-posts". I will put up some covers that will get you this wtf-expression on your face. Yeah, okay so let's start :D

This is one of the weirdest covers I've seen. Basically it's an Indian boy singing Club Can't Handle Me by Florida ft. David Guetta. Just watch.

SteezeWizard presents the first wtf-cover...

The second cover comes from a guy called Jawknee. He sings Avril Lavignes song Girlfriend, and...well it's pretty weird.

He even sings the second verse in like chinese or japanese, I'm not sure what language it is, but it's sure weird, and you will be wtf:ed! :D

This next one is a pretty famous one. It's that little chinese boy singing I'm Yours by Jason Mraz. I don't know if this is weird or so, but it's really funny to watch :D

He has come up with his own lyrics, and he actually plays the ukulele pretty good. His faces are kinda weird too, but he is great!

WootyProductions presents the third and last wtf-cover...

//and yeah, you guys sucks on commenting our posts! :D

Blink 182 rulezzz :D

2011-02-22T10:44:00.000-08:00

Hello again!

In this post I will compare some Blink 182 - All The Small Things drumcovers. This tune has many covers on youtube, so I can't put them all in this post, but I'll choose some good and some bad (:

First of all I will review this cover by a guy called walawala78. He has got his drumset micked, and the video is in Multiview (Many cameras in different angle). It makes this cover more fun to watch, and the sound quality is pretty good to.

I also like his Drumming-style. He's relaxed and he focus on what he is playing. The ending is also funny ;D

The vid has got over 80.000 views, but I think it deserves more, so take a look and please comment what you think about it.

The next cover comes from a guy called Cinok2006. He is playing on a electric drumkit, more exactly a Roland TD-8Kv. The video is in Multiview, and the sound quality is just perfect, but it looks kinda funny with the small cymbals and drums :D.

The wallpaper in the beginning looks kinda noobish, but you don't have to pay any attention to that, it's the drumming that counts.

This is overall a good cover, and Cinok2006 is a very good drummer.

The next cover is a pretty bad one. The sound quality is not the best, but that's because he has only filmed with an ordinary videocamera and no drums are micked. The guy can play the drums, but sometimes his fills just doesn't work, no offence.

One funny thing about this cover is at 2:45. He is doing something of a Stick flip or something like that. I do not know if he's doing it on purpose, but it looks kinda nice :D

The guy call himself Pewterspoon on youtube. Enjoy.

The last cover is made by me, Robin (Movierobban on youtube). I'm playing on a Yamaha Stage Custom drumkit with some Zildjian ZHT Cybals, and a couple Paiste cymbals. I've recorded this with an ordinary videocam, therefore the bad sound quality.

I don't know what to say about my cover, I don't like to brag or anything^^...so please comment on what you think about this cover!

Robin from CoverPlaza presents this drumcover, enjoy!

Msmyla91...

2011-02-22T06:10:00.000-08:00

This guy has skillz! He plays all the instruments to this great Blink 182 song, and he doesn't seem to have any problem at all. The great thing about his covers is the sound quality. I don't know if record into a mixer or whatever, the quality is great.

In this cover, Dammit by Blink 182, the drums are fake, he is using a midi track, but it looks like he really is playing. He also claims that he can play this song on the drums, so it's not really that fake.

OBS! The singer is not msmyla91, it's his friend jmd182 that sings, and it sounds pretty good actually...

So CoverPlaza presents Blink 182 - Dammit by msmyla91

Guys singing some Blink 182..

2011-02-22T02:43:00.000-08:00

At first when I found this video, I thought that it was going to suck, but when I heard the guy in blue, Jeremy Field, then I was just like...wtf? :D His voice sounds almost exactly as Blink 182s singer Tom Delonge and the guys in the video actually sings pretty good.

The other guy Tim Tikovitsch try to sing like Blink 182s other singer Mark Hoppus, but I dont think that he succeed as much as his friend, but still pretty good.

The song Feeling This is a song that must be pretty hard to cover, but they haven't putted in any high pitch voices or anything else, but good job guys!

Enjoy!

Omg, little guy playing Fat Lip by Sum 41!!11!1!

2011-02-21T11:49:00.000-08:00

First of all I just want to say that this is one of the best things I've seen in a long time. And I have nooo idea why this kid doesn't have like a million views...he is sick.

This 5 year old kid, Jonah Rocks, is playing one of the best songs of all time, Fat Lip, and he actually get some good grooves/fills. At this point when the video is filmed, he has only been playing the drums for like two years, and he is already this good. I wonder how good he is at his twenties.
The scream in the end makes this even better, and it makes it fun to watch. Let the video speak for itself!

Blink 182 - What's my age again

2011-02-21T11:46:00.000-08:00

These guys are trying to cover Blink 182 and it doesn't really work.

Blinks music should be really easy to cover, but as we can see in this video, it's possible to screw things up.

I don't have anything more to say than

Poor Blink-182

Goldfinger - Superman cover

2011-02-21T11:26:00.001-08:00

This is a cover of the ska/punk band Goldfinger song ''Superman''.

Band

This is an american band. I'm note sure about their name but they have an youtube account named ''lessthanNOFX''. That's probably not their name. They don't have any information about the band.

Performance

The audio quality is not so good, it's probably filmed with a basic videocamera.

That doesn't matter though because the band does a really good job. Their spirit on stage is really good and they all play good, the singers also do their job pretty well. A big bonus it the saxophones, they are just AWESOME.

The video is only seen by 1 641 people, so now it's your assignment to make the views raise.

CoverPlaza presents ''Superman'' , enjoy!

First post on CoverPlaza

2011-02-21T11:05:00.000-08:00

Hello guys!

This is the fist post on our blog, CoverPlaza. This blog will be updated everyday with at least one post, sometimes even more, depending on how much spare time me, Robin Granqvist and my friend Mathias Broman have and how many people that have sent their covers to us.
I hope you will have a nice stay here at CoverPlaza and that you will continue to follow this blog. (:

The first one is a cover by me and my friend. Robin is on the drums and Mathias plays the guitar. I think that the song is one of BFMV:s best songs, and it's really fun to play.
