The Fray Songs By Fans #1 - They are actually pretty good!

Hi guys,

I thought of beginning this because a while ago I saw this video on Youtube;
YouTube - Over my Head (Cablecar) - FRAY COVER
And he was so good!
YouTube - The Fray - How to save a life cover by Maxime & Pieter
These guys are also really good! ^

So post your fave songs from The Fray performed by the fans!

wow good one Sofia! He gave me goosebumps

I also love this one; YouTube - How To Save A Life cover by Chris Phillips
I really had the feeling it was just more than words he sang.

I like this version of "How To Save A Life"! I wish you could hear him better though...

Yeah the sound isn't really good, but he plays the piano very well!

I didn't know where to post this ... it's not a fan who sings, it's Alicia Keys
It's beautiful cause Alicia has an amazing voice... but I don't know something bothers me in this cover :shurg: don't know what!

YouTube - "How To Save A Life" An Alicia Keys Cover of the Fray

^Wow, it's strange to hear a woman sing it!
It's so amazing that an artist as big as her would appreciate the beauty of that song enough to cover it! They really deserve that exposure...

I'm not that big of a fan of that version though. It's kind of whiney or something. It just doesn't sound real.

This version is really short but I like it of "Look After You". It's got a really polished sound:

I love looking them up on youtube. It's so cool to hear how different people interpret the melodys and the instrumentation differently!

And it's really a compliment to the band that so many people choose their songs to sing themselves and interpret.
