Amateur Song covers (Not for Youtube haters)

Since i'm learning guitar i listen to quite a few covers done by other people. I know a few of my friends do the same.
Post yours.

This one is my absolute fave:
Dara Sheahan - Sitting on the Dock of the Bay.

Two done by a 14 year old girl from Hawaii...seriously, i can imagine seeing her name in the shops in the next few years. She has and amazing voice!

Extreme - More than Words (Cover)

And this one....if you only watch one video in this thread, this is the one.
Really really chilled out version of Corrine Bailey Rae - Just like a Star.

One of the best guitar songs ever, so a gutsy cover, but well done.

While My Guitar Gently Weeps.

Seriously you dont think shes good? I mean, compare her voice to other singers your hear live...i think she has a fairly good chance of getting signed.

Pretty awesome! But would have been even more impressive I think without the accompaniment.

lol i'd agree with him, thought she was kinda average
she's got a nice voice, but i wouldn't put her much beyond that
heh i was just gonna say my sister's got a better voice than her, but then again my sister's a trained vocalist and whatnot. but yeah, she's got a good voice, but nothing that special. at my high school there were probably at least 10 people in my grade who were far far above her talents at that age
