4 versions of Somebody...

It's been a while since I've posted a music video... so here are four versions of the same song, - Somebody that I Used to Know.  I like the song

first the original by Goyte...



a second fun version by Walk Off the Earth (The Key of Awesome does a fun parody of this...)



and more a serious version by Pentatonix



and finally, a fairly straight cover by Ingrid Michaelson



So which one do you like best?

I love the NBC show, The Sing Off.  It's got it all - great music, compassionate knowledgeable judges, and did I say, great music?  I have a few favs... and two of them are finalists -  Pentatonix and Urban Method.  I also liked Delilah who were eliminated earlier.

If you haven't watched the show, go to Hulu and watch it.  It really is a great show and I highly, highly recommend it.

I am routing for Pentatonix...  They get a huge sound with just 5 voices arranged very, very well.  The rhythm section is HUGE and just plain solid.  The beat box guy - Kevin Olusola - also plays piano, cello, and sax and is evidently quite accomplished on each.  I googled him the other day and found this incredible video of him playing cello and beat boxing... just amazing.



and here's Pentatonix
