These Music Covers Are Just As Good, If Not Better, Than The Originals
http://beadheadband.com/

Original songs are always so good. No one can quite hit notes or riffs just like the original artist can. However, these covers that are about to harass the sh*t out of your ears will make you fall in love with covers and love them more than the original song itself. Behold, a new way to enjoy music.

1. Mad World - Taylor John Williams

I hardcore started fangirling as soon as this guy opened his mouth. The tone is amazing.

2. All I Ask - John Saga

I'm almost positive if Adele has a brother, this is him. No questions asked.

3. Cool Kids - Landon Austin

Mother of god. I don't have to be a cool kid. Having half of his talent would be dope too.

4. I Was Made For Loving You - Red and Marks Angel

One word. RIFFS. Do you hear those eargasmic riffs? The jealousy is unreal.

5. Can't Help Falling in Love - Haley Reinhart

Again, one word to describe this video. Beautiful. Beautiful voice. Beautiful story. She's beautiful. Her hair is beautiful. Can I be her for a day? No? K. Cool.

(Song starts at 0:51.)

6. Feelin Good - Wade Graves

Michael Buble or nah?

7. Pillowtalk - SoMo

SoMo always gives us "the feels." Bless his soul. His riffs and tone are almost as good as Zayn's. Just kidding. Nice try, bud.

8. Tonight & Umbrella - Howard Chan

Low-key depressed he didn't leave any contact info. Who am I going to have preform on my wedding?

9. Elastic Heart - Daniela Andrade and KRNFX

They make this look too easy.

10. Jealous - Alex Aiono

Who comes up with this mashup perfection? I clearly wasn't blessed with that gene.

11. West Coast - George Ogilvie

YES. YES. YES.

12. Hallow & Let It Go - Tori Kelly and James Bay

This was probably the best performance of the night. Their voices together are fire. I need them to record this and put it on iTunes A$AP Rocky. So good, y'all.

(Song starts 2:00.)

Now, the real question is, whose version is better? The original artist, or the person doing the cover?

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.

If you’re anything like me, you love a good cup of coffee. My coffee always comes from Starbucks; I refuse to drink it from anywhere else. Over the years, it’s become one of my biggest addictions. So, if you are aware that you’re a Starbucks addict as well, or maybe you need to check to see if you’re an addict, here are seven ways to tell.

College involves a whirlwind of emotions, whether it’s from the stress of an assignment (or twenty), or from fighting with your roommate. It can be overwhelming at times and it’s important to take a step a back and calmly think things over. Maybe gain some perspective. The following aren’t foolproof tips and may not apply to you, but I was able to find success with them (hope you do too!)
