Battle of the Bands (Vtuber Edition)

[Watamate]

I want to make a thread where people can post their favorite Vtuber covers, and hopefully some of us can stumble on some hidden gems in the meantime.

Some of my personal favorite, while trying to stick to one per person and non-official covers (Towa's ERROR/Mio's Sparkle/etc).

Suisei's version of Palette. She also sang it during the Christmas live, but I prefer this version.


Gura's version of Imagine Dragon's Enemy


Watame's acapella Nandemonaiya


Ok, ok it's another Watame cover. Gamble Rumble ft Polka


Sticking with Eurobeat, Korone's Luka Luka Night Fever

Spoiler: Definitely not another Watame song

There's more but I don't want to flood the first post, if this gains traction I might add more in another post.

 

[That Guy Over There]

Watame singing Meltdown


Mumei singing Annie's Song


Watame (again) singing Love, too Death, too

 

[46gumi]

Cool thread. Here's some of my faves:

Roki by HimeHina


Kawaranai Mono by Fuji Aoi


Geki Teikoku by Fuji Aoi, Tokino Sora, and Suntory Nomu


Dear You by Enna Alouette


Light Prayer by Hoshimachi Suisei


Hikari by YuNi

 

[Kourai]

Kotone and Reine's Echo. They're both singing with the emotion the song needs, and they sound alike yet you can instantly tell them apart. I also like the rounds they do in the bridge.


Kotone's Bug. I like the roughness in her voice. Also, turn on the CCs.


Mainstream choice - Sakamata and Laplus' Day by Days. The way they interrupt each other and switch within lines, together with the MV, perfectly sells the song's story about a closed-in, mutually-aware toxic partnership.


Oshi choice - Lui's Call Boy. It does not seem to be a common song for Holo lives.

 

[Piarro]

I really like when they drop the anime voice during karaokes

 

[Banana Hammock]

My favorite cover of Animal.

 

[That Guy Over There]

I really like when they drop the anime voice during karaokes

I'm not so sure it's a voice considering her PL.
Anyway, Shachimu singing Alice.

 

[Watamate]

Just going to add this from the other day.

I like Ina's cover of "Hey, Soul Sister".

Spoiler: embed

I think this cover was privated during the HoloPurge but since it was originally uploaded on Rushia's channel it is now lost anyway. There is only this 360p reupload of Rushia's and Marine's Magnet cover. They complement each other really well.

Mumei sang Silhouette during her most recent karaoke stream and it has been stuck in my head for about a week now. But on the bright side, it did remind me of this:

 

[vestars20]

Here is the song that made people fall in love with Subaru as an Idol.

Look at her moves!

Some useful channels if you are looking for chubba's singing

- mostly HoloEN, boys and girls

 

[Watamate]

A few weeks old now but still chilling. Truly Pitch Perfect Tenshi.

 

[vestars20]

Mio's most popular cover live. Mio isn't the best singer but this particular song resonates so well; it's a good reminder that people can shine if they leverage their talent.

 

[vestars20]

She can really sing


It feels like Sukoya put some raw emotion in singing this. That growl too, amazing

She's graduating today, I think.

 

[Kourai]

This Sora/Virtual Gorilla cover of Cendrillon from 2018 ought to be remembered somewhere. There are EN CCs.
