10 Song Covers In Different Genres

10. Since U Been Gone - A Day To Remember

When the original song was released in 2004 by Kelly Clarkson, it managed to reach the number two spot in the US charts and garnered widespread praise for its powerful vocals, driving rhythm and lyrical themes where a woman is describing how much better her life is since the subject of the song has been gone.

A Day To Remember are a Florida based five-piece who blend melodic and catchy choruses with breakdowns and screaming vocals more associated with metalcore. Having released seven albums over more than fifteen years, they are known not only for their accessible sound and blending genres, but their ability to not take themselves any more seriously than they absolutely have to.

If you are familiar at all with the Kelly Clarkson original and have listened to A Day To Remember before, you may have seen this cover choice as a little surprising. What's even more surprising is how well it works - with only one short section being screamed, it is also accessible to any who don't enjoy that style.

Just a harder version of the original that comes complete with a very tongue-in-cheek video, this is one that comes highly recommended.
