Thanks for sharing. Love the Ronnie Spector version. Didn't know I have such a liking for British blues/soul sound.

Sorry to have to say this but Ronnie Spector was an American singer and the founder of the singing group The Ronettes an all girls group back in the 60's. Unfortunately she passed away January 2022.

Been feeding on Kat Jade (and/via HSCC). Totally great covers.

Here's a sample....

Since Journey was mentioned above, how about this fun acapella version

 

[Andy Mink]

This wasn't the version I was looking for but having experienced really good choir kids this spoke to me. The best is when they sing without direction and make magic. Obviously this one was produced but...

More South Australian covers.....

Geoff Castellucci's voice is insane. A 5 octave range with Earth shaking bass notes.

I am not a big Neal Young fan but this cover is cool. You have to get past the night show introduction but it is enjoyable.

An a cappella take on Aerosmith's Dream On

Interesting, and that James Brown move at the end was something.
