Many people underestimate the talent it takes to play a good cover and hence cover bands get a lot of undeserving hate and never get their due. These bands play songs of established artistes and try to mimic the artiste perfectly or sometimes add their spin on the number. They can remind us of how good a song is and its potential to sound even better. While well-established artistes charge an arm and leg for a show, cover bands can bring you a similar experience for less. They also provide the opportunity to re-live songs recorded by bands and artists that are retired or are no more. Here are eight some covers that got our attention and deserve love for their unique rendition of popular songs:
