    I just started a thread about The Sons of Admirals and Charlie is so cool like. I discovered them when I was watching the Tremeloes do Here Comes My Baby. People were raving about their cover of the Cat Stevens song.

    Have you discovered really amazingly wonderful cool artists on youtube that otherwise would never be heard of? Share them with us.

    This is another guy I found named Michael Skinner. He does great covers and some originals. His sister is also very talented.

    I found Michael when I was looking for my favorite Four Seasons song: Big Man in Town. He sounds like the male version of Tracy Chapman.

    This is Michael with his sister Jess. They're very witty, fun and are great singers. They intentionally sound terrible at first then laugh about it and get serious. How proud their parents must be. This is a cover of the Beatles Two of Us.

    Daniel Learwicker. He has done the impossible....he's created a cover of The Smiths' "How Soon Is Now" that stands up to the original:

    And check out this absolutely gorgeous cover of "There Is A Light That Never Goes Out":

    He has covers of many of my favorite bands...Dubstar, Talking Heads, Radiohead, the Beatles, even Orbital!

    Wow, Leo, that is impressive. I have only watched the first one. He's very talented. I should show this to my grandson Julian and Andy. Andy's a huge fan of the Smiths and new wave in general. Still listening. Amazing.

    2nd one is beautiful, too. I wonder why he doesn't show his face or talk. He should. Amazing what musicians can do with computers.

    LEO, Andy is very impressed. I want to use this to inspire Julian to want to go to college. Maybe as a music major.

    Big Smiths fan here. Great Video

    Lately I've been expanding my musical interest with Sound Hound and Pandora. I guess I should check out Youtube more often.

    The only thing I miss on the two Smith videos is Morrissey vocals.
