Britney Spears Womanizer Challenge: Knatterjak + MGMT Cover stream music mp3 covers

After this cover, I’m retiring my Womanizer Challenge for good. This particular cover is pretty fantastic and, better yet, it follows those oh, so sacred cover rules.

Knatterjak, the graceful medium to this side of “Womanizer,” makes his debut here. I’ve only heard his covers of “Womanizer” and “Time To Pretend” and the makings of an original song, but I am already hooked to his butter-smooth vocals and crisp instrumentation. There are other tracks on his Myspace Page for you to listen to, so make sure to check them out!

One of the best things about this challenge — aside from the great covers — was discovering some great unsigned artists like Timid Tiger and Knatterjak. I’m already a  big fan of both and I assure you that I’ll be keeping up with their progress.

Check out Knatterjak’s covers below:

Oh wow. This is my favorite Womanizer cover, for sure! Gotta love the sweet melodies. And the Time to Pretend cover is just beautiful

Wow, I didn’t know PMA was breaking artists now. Very good covers. I like the stuff on his myspace page too. Would love to see this guy signed because of PMA!

That would be totally awesome.

Thanks for a fun-filled Friday night — it was really boring until I did my PMA check.

Haha. And he plays all of the instruments. Very impressive. Thank you for sharing Knatterjak with the world.

Luis, your finds are the best! First Timid Tiger (I am sure they are here to stay!) and now Knatterjak. Do I hear a PMA record label in the works?
