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.

It's gorgeous ain't it

[@Turkastanable]

Your time has come

[@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]

Defiantly on of the top songs ever written and preformed. Saw him preform it live a few times. The man puts on a spectacular show to. A true entertainer and artist.

[@JoachimKessel]

So much feeling... I loved the original version already, but this is just equally beautiful.

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

[@OldTimer1970]

Why has it taken me 8 years to find this? Wow, one of my all time favourite tracks sang perfectly.

[@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.

[@sped1er33]

So dont listen to it!

Wow I was having a rough day, irritable with everything and this quickly put my soul at ease. You are a modern day siren. Thank you :)

Wicked games is one of the best songs out there. When a woman with the voice of an angel sings it ,and plays it on the piano never in my entire life made my hair in my neck stood up more quickly.
