Lana Del Rey has had her tunes covered by more YouTube users than you can count. I imagine for people who can actually sing, it’s hard to resist her sultry, romantic songs. But now a bigger name has thrown himself into the mix: Boy George has released a video for his cover of ”Video Games,” and it’s a solid version! Watch it here, then tell us what you think!
While Boy George doesn’t have Lana’s vocal range, I think he did an amazing version of this song, and it’s interesting to hear a male cover of it. The video was a bit bland and uninspiring, but it certainly wasn’t painful to watch. I doubt he will, but I would love to hear Boy George cover more LDR!
What do you think of this version of “Video Games?” What do you think of the video?

That Boy George doesn’t have Lana del Rey’s vocal range? Dude, Lana del Rey has NO vocal range, that’s exactly why she barely changes tone or pitch during her songs, and more importantly, why she cannot sing live without the extensive help of AutoTune. Anyone can sing Lana del Rey’s songs because it’s the same pitch the entire song.
I like this cover way more than the original.

@MoonFaeEyryan@xanga - Exactly. Glad I’m not the only person who noticed that. Except I’ve only been able to listen to Video Games. Don’t want to hear anything else from her. :/
