Been a fan since day one.  Like literally I discovered Scott Bradlees youtube channel years ago, randomly, I think before PMJ was a thing (the video was of him playing a crazy mashup called bohemian rhapsody in blue

That Creep cover is one of their best for sure.  The Casey Abrams version of All about that Bass is good but he only took over singing it on tour, their first version had Kate Davis https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iyTTX6Wlf1Y back when they were still filming the videos in his NYC apartment.  I like her better, something about her voice.

Another favorite of mine is Von Smith singing Rude

Coincidentally, I found out recently that my wife's friend's wife knows Scott Bradlee because they both went to Hartt school of music here in Hartford.

Do not follow where the path may lead. Go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.

@knuck was that a bad cut-and-paste or a spam post?

Interesting Micah, I heard the Kate Davis version but I like the Casey Abrams version (or Euro tour version) better because Haley Reinhart sings the lead. In fact, the more I listen through their stuff the more I realize it's Haley Reinhart that I like, she's absolutely incredible.
