If you're into newer iterations of classical pop/techno songs, here are couple of recommendations:
- My Head, My Heart - Ava Max (Around the World - ATC, 2000)
- Higher Love - Kygo - (Higher Love - Whitney Houston, 1989)
- Good Feeling - Flo Rida (Something’s Got a Hold on Me - Etta James, 1962)
- Bittersweet Symphony - Gamper Dadoni (Bitter Sweet - Symphony - The Verve, 1997)
- Hot Stuff - Kygo (Hot Stuff - Donna Summer, 1979)
- Gimme Gimme Gimme - Syzz (Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! - ABBA, 1979)
- 21 Reasons - Nathan Dawn / Alle Farben (Destination Calabria - Alex Gaudino, 2003)
- Samba - YouNotUs (Samba de Janeiro - Bellini, 1997)
- Friday - Riton (Push the Feeling On - Nightcrawlers, 1992)
There are many more, but it's really hard to find a cover that either enhances or builds upon the original or at least keeps the original songs soul intact. The bold ones are personal favorites.Reporting back. Using your bolding for my favorite songs. Note the scores are for personal enjoyment/taste, it's not a review of the music as a whole.
- Gimme Gimme Gimme // Syzz - That bassline. Fuuuck. 10/10
- My Heard, My Heart // Ava Max - I swear I've heard this in a gayclub before and was so annoyed because I didn't get the name of the song. 10/10
- Higher Love // Kygo and Whitney Houston - Feels more like a remix than a totally new song or a cover but don't care. Slaps like a motherfucker. 10/10
- Good Feeling // Flo Rida - Intimately familiar with this song. Don't care. Still jamming and singing along. 10/10
- Bittersweet Symphony // Gamper Dadoni - I forgot I have this song saved on my spotify. Was halfway through it and went to save it. 8/10
- Hot Stuff // Kygo - Great vibes/background music. 8/10
- 21 Reasons // Nathan Dawe and Alle Farben - You know that meme with Vince McMahon getting more and more excited before falling out of the chair? That. 12/10 *** Samba // YouNotaus** - I don't think I ever stopped dancing in my chair. 12/10
- Friday // Riton - Again. Pretty sure I've heard this in a gayclub before. This bops so fucking hard. 10/10
- Call Me - Gabry Ponte and R3HAB // Definitely a bop. Immediately added to my playlist of 'Racing' music.
I made it into a Playlist. It slaps. You have fucking fantastic taste in music. Every single song there slapped hard. I bow before you Sir... however I might have a gift for you.

Just found some more in my other playlists:
- Feeling Good - Bass Nectar (Feeling Good - Nina Simone, 1965)
- All Alone - Leaf Dog, Fliptrix (The Juggler - Fox, 1975)
- F.E.E.L - Lucky Luke (Somebody's Watching Me - Rockwell, 1984)
- Apologize (Sped Up) - Besomorph (Apologize - OneRepublic, 2007)
The Dua Lipa, Elton John song is a bit slow, but perfect for those late work commutes with low traffic. My favorite song with this kind of vibe is Moonshine Got Me or You Wish - Nightmares On Wax which uses the same guitar line.
One of the weirdest weird music videos I know is The Parashute Ending - Birdy Nam Nam, Birdy Nam Nam are amazing Scratch DJs.Speaking of Dua Lipa. Theres an awesome Dua Lipa x Madonna/ABBA mashup but saddly it's not on Spotify.

Oh awesome! I'm actually listening to a jam right now of Disco and House music (always looking for those good vibes). Might as well change things up a little bit. I think I'm gonna start with that ABBA song though...
Will report back soon!
The ABBA cover is a banger and sounds significantly different from the original and Madonnas classic rendition.
Theres also:
- Call Me - Gabry Ponte, R3HAB (Call Me - Blondie, 1980)
But it dwells a bit too far into House.
