Coco Rosie I dunno, I mean Hozier's "Problem" cover, The 1975's "What makes you beautiful", Sam Smith's "When I was your man", Birdy's "Let [her] go", Thirty Seconds to Mars' "Stay", and Bastille's "We can't stop" (I could go on, but you get the point) are all pretty damn good as well. This definitely belongs in the conversation, but there are so many good ones that each make a good argument for the best cover.

Ben Howard, India Bourne and Chris Bond nailed this cover. There's a haunting sound to it, which is very good. I like it and if other folk don't like it that's their choice. No hate going on here, just an ear for good music and the enjoyment of seeing three brilliant musicians enjoying the moment...........
