Is this accurate? I feel like I see a lot of Hercules covers out there. One of my favourites is "How Far I'll Go The Distance".bookworm wrote:Hercules is underrepresented in Disney parody/cover videos; I was pleased to see it included here, and it was a great adaptation. "I can social distance" is brilliant.

It's been awhile, hasn't it?
It's accurate in what I've seen around personally, but admittedly I don't watch too many cover videos. I probably should have just kept the comment to parody videos which I watch more of and am more confident saying it's not often included there.
This is one of my all-time favorite youtube videos, on the topic of Hercules covers

Splitting these posts to keep the other thread on topic because I want to continue on this one.
I don't generally watch covers because they're just someone standing there singing. That's fine, it's nice for them, but if I'm going to just be listening to a song it may as well be the beloved original. I only tend to pay attention to cover videos that have more to them than just someone singing someone else's song. I like when they have a spin put on it, or it's a medley or mashup, or they at least have a costume or visual theme that shows thoughtful production value.
Sometimes you get all of those things and I really appreciate it. The videos made by Peter Hollens are as impressive for the wardrobe and location choices as the actual singing I think.
