I love both of these covers of this Leon Russell song, "A Song For You"

If you make a Spotify playlist with some of these songs, Spotify suggests:
I Will Survive, Cake Personal Jesus, Johnny Cash Smooth Criminal, Alien Ant Farm (should have thought of this one, it's awesome) The Man Who Sold The World, Nirvana Landslide, Smashing Pumpkins (also awesome) Higher Ground, Red Hot Chili Peppers Running Up That Hill, Placebo Another Brick In The Wall, Korn |

Pretty much anything by Me First and the Gimme Gimmes |

Love this too and HATE Taylor Swift's country cover of EW&F's September. Just no. |

Caetano Veloso’s cover of Billie Jean. |
In the movie Captain Fantastick they sang an accapella version of Guns n Roses Sweet child of mine.
