By deep I mean with the most obscure original. I am not talking ‘all along the watch tower’ but things like Fever Ray’s cover of Vashti Bunyan’s song Here before

Fever Ray is relatively well known while Bunyan had very limited success

      There’s a kid I know from a few karaoke nights whose go-to song is Beggin. Now it makes more sense why he does that song a bit differently (the first “Beggin” in the chorus he doesn’t sing.)

      I only grew up with the Madcon version and I didn’t know until today that it was a cover.

      I also heard a local singer do a really good acoustic cover of that song, where he actually does the rap parts.
