- The Fray - Heartless (Kanye West Cover)
- Black Eyed Peas - Boom Boom Pow
- The Police - Message in a Bottle
- 2Pac - Dear Mama
- Alan Parsons Project - Ammonia Avenue
When I heard The Fray performing this beautiful cover of Kanye’s “Heartless” on BBC’s Radio 1, it really seemed to capture the song’s melancholy feeling. The Police’s “Message in a Bottle” also fit the mood, and for the beat I used a sloooowwwed down “Boom Boom Pow”, the Black Eyed Peas’ inescapable hit.
Kanye based his original “Heartless” on a sample by the Alan Parsons Project, “Ammonia Avenue”, so I grabbed that sample, and also added a little bit of 2Pac’s “Dear Mama”, where he talks about being “heartless”.
And here’s the video for it:

This is my favorite mashup out of all the ones that you have done. Blame it on the pop is really good too but this one takes the cake. It has a great beat and i’m really glad that you went with the fray’s version of heartless. The bass also really bumps in my car too so that’s always a plus. Keep up the good work!
