I'll start. I'm sorry but California Love is a boring ass song.

The first ten seconds of the beat is amazing, but then it just gets so repetitive. The flows sound uninspired and the lyrics aren't anything special.

I do respect that's its a classic West Coast anthem, but damn if that song don't put me to sleep ๐Ÿ˜ด๐Ÿ˜ด๐Ÿ˜ด

Hallelujah - Leonard Cohen

The Jeff Buckley version is still my favorite. I haven't heard any other cover since then that seems to do it justice.

It's definitely been covered badly too many times and overplayed to the point that it's a cliche now though

My personal favorite cover was done by Tom Waits.

But I'm also a fan of his music so the bias is there.

Oh wow! I love Tom Waits! I didn't know he had done a cover of Hallelujah, I'll have to look it up!
