Crossroads [Cover by Mary Spender Trio]
Just discovered this one. All Voices Boys of Summer by Petra Hayden, cover of Boys of Summer by Don Henley 1984. It was popular at the Grammy's.
Hayden's arrangement harkens back to the a capella work of groups like the Swingle Singers. Petra Haden is an interesting person: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Petra_Haden
She has other covers and a capella.

Did you know that Mike Campbell originally wrote this track for his late Heartbreakers bandmate and leader, Tom Petty (1950-2017)? But Tom turned it down, claiming such a song wouldn't have fit in with the album the band was then recording, called Southern Accents. Campbell also admitted: "... but at the time, the record we were working on, Southern Accents, it didn't really sound like anything that would have fit into the album." RIP Tom! With the passing of Tom Petty, Campbell has now become one of two guitarists in Fleetwood Mac (the other being Tim Finn of Crowded House), replacing longtime member Lindsey Buckingham (who'd been with the band since 1974)."
