Channel Surfing, Part 2-- Drew Chambers

So, I was browsing YouTube and came across the channel for a singer named Drew Chambers. He has a mix of mostly covers with some original material that you should definitely check out. I was especially impressed by his cover of "Rolling in the Deep". Right now, though, I wanna leave you with an original track called "Like That":



This song reminds me of the kind of R&B I used to listen to in the 90s. Very smooth, soulful sounds with a great voice behind it. What do you guys think? Comment back and let me know. Don't forget to subscribe to his channel if you like what you hear. Til next time...

By the way... look out for my video blog about Lady Gaga's fans and their issue with Adele right now on my own channel.

Coverage

As you probably know from my earlier post, I was busy browsing the country news site The Boot today. I was pleasently surprised to come across this post. It's Little Big Town doing a cover of Adele's "Rolling in the Deep". As you might have seen, I am a huge fan of Adele and the song, and I think they did it justice. Enjoy and please feel free to share your own thoughts about the song!

By the way... if you look just below the video, you will see they have done quite a few other cover videos including a Lady Gaga one and a Bruno Mars cover. I just love when genres collide... :)

Covers and Medleys....

So, admittedly, I don't follow the pop scene very much anymore. Haven't in several years now. There are a lot of factors involved in that, but mostly it comes down to the fact country stations like GAC are the only places to really see music as I couldn't even load youtube videos at the time. Plus, radio doesn't exactly play much variety. Lately, however, I have had the chance to see a few videos in the morning when VH1 has their jumpstart programming and got to see Adele's "Rolling in the Deep". Awesome song and powerful video, but that's not what I have to share with you today. See, I found her target exclusive version of 21 and discovered she did a cover of Lady Antebellum's "Need You Now". The cover is from a CMT special and was performed with Darius Rucker. It's definitely different, but I think they did a pretty good job of it. Lady Antebellum seemed to enjoy themselves, anyway...



As an added bonus, I came across another video from the 2009 Grammy awards where Sugarland performed "Stay". After, Adele comes out and she performs her song "Chasing Pavements" with Jennifer. It's really interesting to me how bands from different genres seem to be coming together more. It just goes to show you how universal a good song is. Anyone can relate.
