This is my first mixtape I’m uploading, and I thought for my first theme I’d pick covers. I really like covers. I’m not talking Westlife covering Unchained Melody. I mean hearing something you know, and quite often love, in a new and different way. Sort of like looking at something familiar from a different angle. Most of the songs are famous, but some of the renditions take the songs in unexpected directions. I like that. Give it a try.
