Playlist of the week

Awhile back I created a playlist of my favorite cover songs. I eventually deleted it because I wanted to re-do it. Over the weekend I created a new playlist of my favorite cover songs. I was inspired to create a new playlist when I heard Brothertiger's cover of the Tears for Fears classic "Everybody Wants to Rule the World". There is a lot of synthpop on this playlist but I have include a little pop music, Social Distortion's version of "Ring of Fire", and Johnny Cash's classic interpretation of "Hurt" by Nine Inch Nails. I am not going to lie I absolutely adore Steps' version of Benny Andersson Band's classic pop song "Story of a Heart". It is so addictive to listen to with hits infectious pop hooks. I enjoy the original version but Steps' interpretation gives it a modern pop sound. All of the songs on this playlist are as good as the originals, and some even better (i.e Social Distortion's "Ring of Fire").
