J.T. Posted September 17, 2015 Posted September 17, 2015 Thanks, random youtube algorithm recommendation program, for this WTH moment today. Only the people that watched Star Blazers are clapping.
OSJ Posted September 17, 2015 Posted September 17, 2015 I don't know how to link it or embed it, but y'all know how to use youtube... Doesn't get a whole lot odder than Warren Zevon covering Prince's "Raspberry Beret". Needless to say, the great one makes it his own. Damn, I miss Zevon almost as much as I miss Lux Interior... 2
JRGoldman Posted September 17, 2015 Posted September 17, 2015 Onsind and Spoonboy have a whole series of covers of pop songs. They basically do a few with whomever they end up touring with:

Couldn't agree more. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6pE5t3knEKU The album that proved REM* could rock. *Or 75% of REM, anyway. 1
odessasteps Posted September 18, 2015 Posted September 18, 2015 That Hindu Love Gods album is one big great WTF. ---- Found this while looking for the original version of the song. 2
stiffshots Posted September 18, 2015 Posted September 18, 2015 An oldie (in several senses of the word), but an absolute charmer.
Cole Miner Posted September 30, 2015 Posted September 30, 2015 Paul Young doing Metallica Jazz Band style
Cristobal Posted September 30, 2015 Posted September 30, 2015 Dunno if it's odd/unusual, but it is awesome: 5
(BP) Posted September 30, 2015 Posted September 30, 2015 Prince covering Bonnie Raitt. I have no idea what is going on in the actual video. This was the only version I could find. 1
Robert C Posted October 6, 2015 Posted October 6, 2015 Toots and the Maytals covering , of all people, John Denver. 3
Leonidas Posted October 11, 2015 Posted October 11, 2015 Thank you for introducing me to Marc Martel, that is a damn impressive voice. The only Icelandic band I know covering some Britpop: And an all time classic covered orchestrally by another master musician:
RIPPA Posted October 15, 2015 Posted October 15, 2015 Fuck yeah, Postmodern Jukebox! Yeah - I have become kinda obsessed with them since I posted that first clip Though the Sad Clown versions can go fuck themselves
cool arrow Posted December 7, 2015 Posted December 7, 2015 Chris Cornell put the music of U2's One together with the lyrics of Metalllca's One and came up with this: 4
Death From Above Posted December 7, 2015 Posted December 7, 2015 That turned out way fucking better than I expected.
stiffshots Posted December 8, 2015 Posted December 8, 2015 Between "Seven Nation Army" and this, Haley Reinhart is rapidly becoming Post Modern Jukebox's MVP. 1
cool arrow Posted December 11, 2015 Posted December 11, 2015 There's really nothing odd at all about this cover; it's 100% faithful to the original. The unusual part is who's involved: members of The Killers, Spoon, Mellowdrone, and the Flaming Lips, and... Weird Al Yankovic. 1
J.T. Posted December 17, 2015 Posted December 17, 2015 Chris Cornell fucking rules. That One + One cover is sweet. I think this is my favorite experimental Chris Cornell cover.
