What I wouldn't give to sit next to Etta James if she was able to watch Joe bend the notes and Beth pour her soul into this classic:

Led Zeppelin When The Levee Breaks by Zepparella

 

[NoDad]

This has to be one of the best covers. At least of this song

I've quite enjoyed these Scandinavian hillbillies... very talented group (plus I'm a sucker for a pun-name)... Steve'n'Seagulls covering:
AC/DC's "Thunderstruck"

Metallica's "Seek and Destroy"

and my favorite (mostly due to source): Megadeth's "Symphony of Destruction"

They've got a ton of covers (they do a mean Dio as well).

London Grammar covering Chris Isaac's "Wicked Game"

Ha, the boys started here in my hometown Jyväskylä! Never heard them live (don't like metal), but they play around here regularly.

This might be ultimate hillbilly (Ponsse is located close to Genelec by the way...)

Four Tops - Reach Out I'll Be There

Markku Aro ( Puputti) 1950- has been one of the most popular Finnish singers since 1968 and still going strong! Now he's on 50/70 years jubilee tour! Many of his greatest hits are covers, but he has represented Finland also at Eurovision song contest.

Fiona Apple - Across the Universe

Peggy Lee - Johnny Guitar

Topi Sorsakoski (Pekka Tammilehto 1952-2011) was a guitarist and singer who loved old dance music that his father's band played. He collaborated with Agents and made several albums, mostly covers. Band leader Esa Pulliainen is master of Fender, listen to his solos!

I don't like the youtube live of Surujen kitara, too slow tempo and too much modulations.

Led Zeppelin When The Levee Breaks by Zepparella

A good cover of a good cover - they even credited Memphis Minnie for the original. Much as I love Zeppelin, they didn't always give credit where it was due.

 

[Juhazi]

Finland is a small nation with own language suomi. Covers of foreign pop songs were extremely popular until 1980's, because most people couldn't understand lyrics. We have some remarkable singers, here the most beloved lady Laila Kinnunen (1939-2000) who made hunderds of recordings, tv shows and movie performances. She could sing with authentic intonation in several foreign languages, eg. english, russian, german, swedish, spanish, french, italian

The Platters - In Twilight Time

 

[Juhazi]

The most popular male singer of all times in Finland is Olavi Virta (1915-1972) Like Laila Kinnunen he made hundreds of recordings, movie roles and tv show performances. And both suffered from alchoholism. Olavi didn't sing much in foreign languages. There are only some live clips of him in Youtube, but movie contains his originals.

Fred Buscaglione - Guarda Che Luna

 

[Martin Takamine]

A good cover of a good cover - they even credited Memphis Minnie for the original. Much as I love Zeppelin, they didn't always give credit where it was due.

I like Led Zeppelin and they were one of the best cover bands of their time.

It's all performed, tracked and mixed by her in her bedroom studio. Remarkable because she's been blind almost since birth. As well as keyboards, she can play guitar, bass, banjo, flute and the Chapman Stick. She uses her Soundcloud account mainly to post the covers she does, there's something for most tastes. She also has a couple of albums out and there was a documentary movie about her.
