Take Cover

so i absolutely love cover songs, especially when the song is done drastically different than the original, therefore i am going to start off this soon to be regular series on cover songs with mat weddle’s version of outkast’s hey ya. now before you stop reading, just click below and start listening. while he definitely performs the song very differently, he doesn’t change a whole lot, other than the tempo and the instrumentation, and then obviously a different, and in my opinion, a more inviting voice. but for those of you who either hated on this song from the get go, i hope that by listening to this version will recognize how great of a song it really is. and for those that were able to enjoy back in the day but just got sick of hearing it everywhere they went, here is a nice and easy way to enjoy that great melody that made you want to “shake it like a polaroid.”
