Music from the US – Billy Joel

This is Billy Joel performing “The Longest Time” in London in 1984. The song starts at 2:30 but the beginning is worth watching, too. :)

They won the Avett Brothers’ “Live and Die” cover contest, and their submission isn’t only what I think is the best cover ever, but also the most amazing music in general that I have listened to in quite a while.

Could this get any better? The answer is no, no it couldn’t.

I couldn’t agree more with YouTube user Margaritamix566. Although they are only three it sounds like a choir singing. They have very powerful voices and sing beautiful harmonies which results in a divine sound.

Music from the UK/Ireland

The Overtones are a Doop-wop boy band from London. The name “Doop-wop” derives from the often used nonsense syllables in this style. Listen to their song “Gambling Man” (It has beautiful harmonies!) and enjoy the music video!
