Cover Of The Week: Take On Me - Reel Big Fish

-
Many bands get famous due to a cover they make of a famous song, Whats interesting of covers is that you can hear a song you might love in a different genre or style of music. Some covers are really good and some are really bad, you might love one more than the original or hate it because they ruin the original, but it's always nice to hear a different version of a song and see how a band can transform a song to their own band style.


The Original is from A-Ha. (here) is a link so you can compare. Do click on the original's video if you haven't seen it, It's a classic.

The Cover is From Reel Big Fish: This is a perfect example of a cover that changes the song completely. Going from the A-ha's New Wave genre to Reel Big Fish's Ska-punk tone. Here it is!

I figured since the game recently got released for Nintendo Switch what better time to talk about this game and its wonderful music which by no one's surprise is by far my favorite aspect of this game. To think I almost passed the chance to play this game considering I still hold it as one of my favorite games that I have played this year. Thanks to a friend of mine who pushed me into playing it basically and actually buying it and not even play it until 2 to 3 months later but what eventually got me to play it was that this same friend brought his ps4 over one time and he had the Undertale Ruins Dynamic Theme which has a very melodic calm tune playing, this song ultimately made me want to play the game, because this song had something specia
