"Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This)" by Patty Gurdy

 


German dark folk artist Patty Gurdy covers London, UK new wave duo Eurythmics' 1983 synth pop hit "Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This)" using just her voice and a hurdy gurdy, and it is BY FAR the most metal thing I've heard in decades.  

If this version doesn't make you want to head into Westeros and do battle against White Walkers, nothing will.  

For more Eurythmics covers, Minerve's version of "Here Comes the Rain Again" can be found here, and Bubble Scum's version of "Missionary Man" can be found here.

"Here Comes the Rain Again" by Minerve


 

Here come the April showers again, raining in my head like a tragedy.  Tearing me apart like a new emotion.

Berlin, Germany electro dance band Minerve lay down an industrial futurepop backdrop for their cover of 1984 new wave hit "Here Comes the Rain Again" by London, UK new wave duo Eurythmics.

For another Eurythmics cover, Bubble Scum's version of "Missionary Man" can be found here.

"Missionary Man" by Bubble Scum


 Helsinki, Finland group Bubble Scum describe themselves as "Lowtech ghetto glamfunk."

That description is pretty spot on, as is their incredibly danceable remake of British synth-pop duo Eurythmics' 1986 single "Missionary Man."
