When Daft Punk goes a cappella, could Kanye West be “strongest”?

Needless to say, we all know how talented Kanye West is. As a mutli-platinum Hip-Hop producer, rapper, songwriter and an artist, he has proved himself more than adequate and confident to what he is doing. Each time his refreshing take-on of old stuff always rocks the world, from big band sparkling classic “Diamonds Are Forever” to the latest groovy remake of Daft Punk’s anchor piece “Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger”. Even Daft Punk themselves showed up on the stage of Grammy with him, what more can you say?

Nevertheless, what I am trying to get to here is not about Kanye West, it’s about THE SONG. Can you imagine to perform this dancy tune through A Cappella? Yes, people already did that before Kanye West made it into a synth rap mega hit. I was on my break of finishing my homework and accidentally found this on YouTube. Suddenly I had difficulty to figure out my preference between single mastermind or group power.

Fun Cover: Nelly Furtado “Crazy” (Gnarls Barkley)

Sometimes a good song only takes a good voice and simple instrument to bring out the beauty. Nelly Furtado is definitely one of the most characteristic female vocalist at present. Don’t ever forget how she stunned the world with “I’m Like A Bird” in 2000. “Crazy” of Gnarls Barkley is no doubt one of the most exciting track in 2006. And from BBC Jo Whiley’s Live Lounge, it was presented, the new cover of 9-weeks UK #1 single from this 5-Junos winner.

I like this acoustic version. Or maybe this song is just too brilliant to be covered no matter how. And follows is the offical sound studio footage from Universal Music. I love her singing like this!
