YouTube Thursday: Favourite cover songs: Wouldn't it be good
Wouldn’t it be good by Nik Kershaw is such a cheesy eighties song, but still I like it. Not sure why. I loved it years ago, and I still like it today. Especially the incredibly dated music video.

This is another good example of a song that you may not notice how good it is until it gets covered. For example, Belgian band Soulwax did a great cover version of this song.

-Sorry, couldn't find a vid for this version-
Another nice cover is by Placebo. I might be a little biased because I really like Placebo, but yes, definitely better than the eighties original.

Yes, I know, that's a lot of singing by dudes. Luckily, some women have attempted to cover this song. Here's an interesting rendition by Tina Arena.
