i'm waking up, i feel it in my bones

I'm really loving Imagine Dragons's Radioactive at the moment. Of the few times I heard it over the radio, I simply assumed it was Coldplay's new single because Dan Reynolds sure sounds A LOT like Chris Martin. But of course, if one is familiar with Coldplay, you'd realise Radioactive is not quite Coldplay in terms of lyrics.

They also have an awesome video for the song and I was simply blown away when I saw the stuffed monster! It's a rock video - with loads of teddy bear. How ridiculously cool is that? Haha!



As good as the original is, I can't help feeling Lindsey Stirling and Pentatonix did an equally good cover version. Lindsey is like rock violinist goddess and Pentatonix is this up-and-coming a capella group. Their version is edgier and raw, with a little hint of hip-hop. Just a little.



They're both so good I can't decide which I like better! What do you think?
