Original v. Cover [V.1]: A Great Big World, ‘Say Something’

I mentioned in my recent Sunday Rant that I would be starting a  new series Original v. Cover which compares the original of the song with a cover. The covers can easily be found on YouTube. I was inspired by seeing two videos that stood out to me. One was a cover of ‘Drunk in Love’ and the other of ‘Say Something.’ The first two installments of this series will be discussing both songs.
