dunno if she strictly counts as amateur (must've had hella voice lessons), but wow, this catswillrule girl's voice is crazy beautiful. in fairness I'm a sucker for ppl with really bright, clear voices.

I haven't heard the originals of these songs (or even heard of the artists) so I have no idea how they might compare.

intense ex-metal dude (or hardcore dude? gotta be one or the other) covers Nick Lowe on acoustic guitar. he really nails the solo, and the hair toss he does toward the end is righteous, even though he has terrible hair.
