my brother once introduced me to Boyce Avenue with their cover of Rihanna's Umbrella. i've heard a lot of Umbrella cover and spin offs but Boyce Avenue is by far one of the best. better even than Marie Digby's cover that had shot her to instant fame. (the other one would be Mandy Moore's cover). here's a sample :
so i went back, listening to them, and found they've posted new covers up on youtube. of course they have their own songs .. but i love the acoustic covers more. and i've been tweeting and sharing since morning, raving on how i love them. then thought that i'm probably just wanking too much and people don't actually give a damn about what i like.
so here i am, in the safe sanctuary of my personal digital dildo, sharing my favorite collection of Boyce Avenue covers. if you havent heard of them yet and don't get why i love them, here are some reasons why :
grenade : bruno mars
perfect : pink
need you now : lady antebellum
coming home : p diddy & skylar grey
fireworks : katy perry
superman : five for fighting
drops of jupiter : train
water runs dry : boyz II men
back for good : take that
fast car : tracy chapman
only girl in the world : rihanna
crash into me : dave matthews band
yellow : coldplay
angel : sarah mclachlan
closer : neyo
viva la vida : coldplay

I've been listening & raving about them since a few years ago but sapa pun macam dont care masa tu. Haha. I still remember i wrote about them in my blog in 2009http://lifeisabigcanvas.blogspot.com/2009/09/acoustic-addiction.html.
They're really good kan? Sometimes better than the original singer(s). I agree with u yang their acoustic cover memang awesome.
Among my favorite ialah I'll Be, Fast Car, Drops of Jupiter, Yellow, Angel, Viva La Vida.
