This is a good example of what a cover song should be: a proper reinterpretation. Gloria’s version was sung with hot tempered defiance and anger, as in “ill survive, you motherfxxer, I’ll kill you”. Cakes versions is sung with a peaceful confident calm and a gentle smile, as in, “You know what, despite all the hardship, I’m ok. Life is not too bad. I will survive.”
Stoked to see you enjoyed the cake requests! Granted, they both were covers, but Cake always seems to put their own spin on songs that make them feel original. You should check out some of their discography for sure. Great band! Great react! Keep truckin dude
Currently following your Angelina Jordan journey, when I saw this in your playlist. This brings back memories, I've listened so much to Cake, really love their music. Had to check out your reaction to it. Would love to see more Cake reactions from you! :)

My boys from Sacramento, California. These guys rock. Their whole discography is in my playlist.
One of those bands with a unique sound that could NEVER be confused for anyone else.

We all survived
cake: the distance. my favorite cake song. and i love cake.
Got to see them live with the Violent Flemms opening for them. Amazing show. Bass player stole the show.
If you like that bass listen to literally anything by them. Its all incredible. Nobody grooves like Cake.
This was my divorce song, too. I took nothing and left him with everything. I survived, he didnt. 😁
Love the reaction. Cake is the master of rubato. Chopin would be proud :^)
Melancholy ecstasy.
Feeling even more Comfort Eagle

It’s all about the irony in the delivery as compared to the song’s original intention.
É assim que se faz
I will survive, but then I'm like whatever.
Sorry your sh!t went sideways but a man like you can do anything. Cake kicks all Ass.
