Chris Isaak - Wicked Game cover by Marie Digby

Recorded with Blue Yeti Microphone and Garageband
I happened to hear this late at night on the radio.. hadn't heard this song in ages. This music video from the 90's is so iconic.. I mean..Helena Christensen! hello! So I decided to do a simple one-take style piano cover. Sorry for missing the slide guitar which is such a huge part of this song ;)

[@Moonbrony]

Impressed most by how simple the recording is. No overproduced, effects ridden nonsense. Just a girl with a beautiful voice and exceptional talent on the paino

[@Parallaxus]

After listening to about 20 different takes on Wicked Game, I congratulate Marie Digby. This is very good. Very impressed. The singing and playing was very clean and tidy. I've only liked a few (people's versions of this song), and this is one of them.

[@instantjoke9419]

listen the three day grace version ;)

[@stevedad1985]

+INSTANT JOKE Thank you for that. I've heard this version a million times (and love it), but 3DG version is badass as well. Made my day.

[@instantjoke9419]

+Stephen Brest have a nice day ;)

[@carmenjazz5546]

Karen Souza does a really cool jazz lounge version

[@HumbrianSung]

I have to agree. I managed to find about 40 different versions. From hip-hop to classical, to Irish folk. I find the Issac tones in the original version match this cover with exquisite timing. As you say, her playing was very very clean indeed. I like them all as I love the song; but this version in particular trumps all in my eyes. Of course we all have different opinions which I respect.

Sometimes when I can’t sleep I pick a song & go down the KZbin rabbit hole looking for covers. There’s no one who covers Wicked Game as wonderful as you. This is pure perfection.

Talented and full of feelings, she's a treasure.

[@dandanpete]

I'm struggling on how to comment. To try to use words like gorgeously breathtaking is an insult to this performance. There's no way to describe the beautiful way you played and sung this song. So very well done. Thank you. You got tears and goosebumps from me.

[@AkiraNakamoto]

I think she inherits some Japanese style restraining and introversion from her mother's side, which is exotic and rare in western culture (of course relatively speaking).

[@puppylove3781]

Check the live cover version by London Grammar and then watch London Grammar Hey Now Radio 1 Big Weekend 2014, now thats a voice.

I watched your video about 50 times and I can't get enough of your angelic voice. Your piano playing is excellent. Love your rendition.

Very talented lady, loved this version.

[@huryu1948]

The contrast between her unassuming and angelic voice and the heavy theme of tortured love (or denial of) hits home even harder. Well done Marie Digby. I too explored this theme in my cover of this song where I channeled inspiration from Adam and Eve in context of the song.

[@celesteayoung2660]

I had this cover on one of my playlists, on my old phone 5 years ago.. I just remembered the song and couldn't recall who sang this cover.. I clicked on more than 10 covers and I finally found it🫶🏽🫶🏽 The best Wicked Game cover ❤️❤️❤️

Just going through my favourites playlist (to which this was added years ago). Clicked on it and the reason for me adding it immediately became clear once again. A deeply emotive but softy, delicately and intricatly delivered rendition of an amazing song. Just beautiful. Nicely done Marie.

[@graemesandstrom5654]

Beautifully done Marie. You’ve really captured the passion of the song with your flawless performance.

Wow! You should have got a part for a duo with Lucifer in season 5 ;-) Great version Marie!

[@13612]

This song still haunts me from the time I had this album playing it and met the woman I should have married......she had it in her vehicle tape player as well, what the coincidence. A short 1 year lived romance that ended because of my selfishness. This is the one thing in my life I would go back and change if I could. The closest thing I can do though is listen to this song again. Thanks for a beautiful cover of this song that is forever with me.
