“Black Hole Sun” by Paul Anka

originally by Soundgarden

(via topherchris)

Listening to a lot of covers today, and this one takes the cake.  Paul Anka fucking TEARS BLACK HOLE SUN APART.  

This is what a cover is all about.  It’s not just singing the song, it’s not just maybe adding an inflection or two.  

Anka pulls a Six Million Dollar Man on this song, taking it apart, rebuilding it with his own personal bionics. 

Anka Owns this song for me, now.
