    I'm a big fan of Leo from Frog Leap Studios but be warned if you check that out that very few of his other songs are like this; this is definitely more of a straight cover.

    Spender is great and Leo is some kind of mad genius in the studio! If anyone hasn't seen his metal version of Toto's Africa (I know, I know, that song is having a weird cultural moment right now), it's worth watching.
