MUSIC TIME
link me the vtuber covers of vocaloid songs that made you think "nah fuck Miku, this is _vtuber_name's song now"
I'll start with my two fav examples
I've seen someone on twitter call KIRA the Ke$ha of vocaloid songs and this is the perfect example: an angsty hymn for party girls that never danced on an actual dancefloor, it's an easy song but Kiara's version just feels much more "right" than the original vocaloid
Lots of times vocaloid songs with heavy human themes work perfectly with an artificial voice, in this case I don't know if the original tuning is simply too plain for my taste but while i like the song I've always found it lacking. Machita Chima's version on the opposite is simply flawless. with the way she bends the words and fills them with the real weight of desperation she takes the song and just owns it
There's a rrat that Kira made 4Blood basically with Kiara in mind. Even the Miku version sounds like he made her voice sound like Kiara was singing it.
Suisei and Calli's version of GETCHA! both has like 3x more views than the original, but also is basically the definitive cover.
I am sure there are more out there, but that is the one that comes to mind for me. With all the King covers out there, it may not have more views, but I like Reine's the best because it actually stands out with being a full remix and MV.
Edit: wrong link for Getcha
