10 Rock Cover Songs Better Than The Original

5. "Real World" By Matchbox 20 – Covered By State Champs

Here is another song known for being an iconic 90’s alternative song, and if you are like me, it lost its charm back long ago from being overplayed on the radio and every store Musak system until the early 00’s.

Luckily, State Champs came around in 2019 to cover this song and give it a much-needed refresh. Putting more emphasis on strong guitar and instrumentals, State Champs took this song that I was sick of hearing and made me enjoy listening to it regularly. By delivering more ear pleasing vocals and more powerful instrumentals in the background, State Champs turned this song from a slow boring 90’s alt song, to a much more enjoyable 00’s pop punk song.
