"What's Up?" - 4 Non Blondes Cover by The Running Mates

[@Sendrien]

Sometimes it's the original, other times it's a cover, but eventually, every song finds its definitive version - the version that so completely captures the essence and potential of that song that all past and future versions are measured against it. THIS is the definitive version of What's Up. Absolutely sublime.

[@therunningmatesband]

Wow, thank you so much that's a huge compliment!

[@brewse64]

honestly....i could not find a reason to disagree

[@stevelane6919]

I like 4 Non-blonds better, this is nice.

[@CRASS2047]

While fantastic, I definitely think the original was best. Considering how hard it is to write a new song with zero guidance from anyone, I think your comment takes away the much deserved credit from 4 Non Blondes.

[@Dr_Do-Little]

There's no such thing as a definite version. I believe in heaven now tho. Cuz I just been there.

[@jefferymcknight1166]

Oh goodness me, you two are in a whole different universe with your unbelievable talent. The vocals that emanate from both of you are so attractive, so unique, so powerful, so beautifully effective, so irresistible, and so fun. I’ve only recently discovered your KZbin channel, so am very late to your party, but I am having fun catching up to all of your extraordinary offerings to all of us who love your delightful sound. Wow!!! Just listened again to your phenomenal rendition of this classic hit. And it’s official, you two own this song. This performance is better than the original artists. In fact it is the best, most convincing version of this song ever. 🤗❤️🤗❤️🤗❤️🤗❤️

[@andersnielsen6044]

Actually his voice is the most incredible thing here.. What a performance. ;)

[@lessharratt8719]

Agreed. This dude can sing.

[@charliestafford9978]

It feels wrong to single one of them out as they are both fantastic... but I agree! Some of his guitar work on other songs is spot on as well 👌

[@colywogable]

The guitarist's voice is amazing.

[@Magicocentro]

I agree. He as a very particular timbre of voice

[@reenougle]

I am amazed at the perfect blend of you two. Just a pleasure to listen to.

[@randalldlugoss306]

Their voices blend nicely yet are distinct enough to focus in on one voice or the other. Clarity and strength makes this couple awesome to listen to. I think this song is their best cover I have heard so far and I am looking forward to more.

I could listen to you both sing for hours. You've seriously blown me away with all the covers of some of my favorite songs. You deserve to be discovered and heard around the world

Anyone like the irony of 2 non blondes covering 4 non blondes? I stumbled on you two today. I love how well you blend.

That's not irony, at all.

I'm not sure you understand what irony is... It would be more ironic for 4 blonds to be covering 4 non blondes. kzbin.info/www/bejne/oaSZkniGhqqapac watch this lmao

There's A LOT of 4 Non Blondes Whats Up covers on KZbin but this one is seriously the best. The back and forth duet in the verse is perfect. The stop time guitar during the second verse.
