I really should title this blog: "The Top 10 Covers of all the music I enjoy... according to me." or something like that. Because, frankly, it's more of a list of my favorite covers rather than the opinions of the rest of the RCA staff... however, here I shall commence.

So, my knowledge of music is very minutia, thus my opinion about the top 10 song covers seems a bit counterintuitive, right? I mean, who cares what I, a 23 year old recent college graduate now teacher in lower New York state, has to say about music? Well, I hope you know that what I have to say is pretty ordinary and biased… but to know my music choices is to see a part of myself.

Now, let's get down to business. Here are my top 10 best covers of all time:

1. "Hurt" - Johnny Cash (Nine Inch Nails Cover)


2. "Wonderwall" - Cat Power (Oasis Cover)


3. "1000 Miles" - Moneta (Vanessa Carlton Cover)


4. "Last Night" - Adele (The Strokes Cover)


5. "Toxic" - Yael Naim (Britney Spears Cover)


6. "My Girls" - Becca Stevens Band (Animal Collective Cover)


7. "Fake Plastic Trees" - Amanda Palmer (Radiohead Cover)


8. "California" - Mates of State (Phantom Planet Cover)


9. "Float On" - Goldspot (Modest Mouse Cover


10. "I Don't Wanna Be' - Kate Voegele


So, what are your favorite covers of your favorite songs???
