Each of those was so much more inventive than many cover versions bands put out.

That was super fun! I needed that. Depeche Mode and John Williams FTW! Cute.

That was awesome. Too many versions to single out, I’ve got tears in my eyes!

That was great! All of them.
The RHCPs dropped by my college back in the day for a free outdoor concert. It was just as you might imagine, AWESOME! Good times. Been a huge fan ever since.

These were what covers should be - inventive and original. Like when Devo sang Satisfaction. 99% of cover bands are a waste of perfectly good sound.

I thought the Zappa and Bowie ones were perfect.

Man, slipknot voice/mood right into 21 pilots? Talk about abrupt transitions. I wonder how many times he had to do this before getting all the transitions just right.

This is a musical wonderful thing.
Thank you.
Around '84 or '85 when the RHCP’s were still touring out of the back of a beat up van, they played at the punk/hippie/biker bar that was my main hangout. I was super excited to see them, but was rather disappointed that it wasn’t a sox on cox concert.

I was equally impressed with his complete changes of body language for each transition.
