I like: Papa Was a Rolling Stone - Rockapella
Rockapella, as always, accurately captures each of the sounds of the song with their voices alone. George Baldi III has the vocal range of a piano (listen to him sing "I Will Always Love You" on youtube). His smooth bass voice is perfect for this classic. Jeff Thacher also deserves a shout-out for his beatboxing skills. This song is a bit outside Rockapella's usual range of musical choices being a bit lighter. They tend to pick "fun" or "pretty" songs, but they truly capture the soul of an amazing song with this cover.
I dislike: A Rush of Blood to the Head - One Way Left
This song is an exact copy of Coldplay's original, but with a worse vocalist with a voice like a country star that is out of place with the music.
