TRC Presents: Cover Wars

There’s no better way than to kick off the New Year, with a brand new Cover Wars. In this edition, Emeli Sandé re-envisions John Lennon’s Imagine.

Imagine by John Lennon is one of the greatest songs ever recorded. Rolling Stone described Imagine as Lennon's "greatest musical gift to the world". So it comes as no surprise that this song has been covered by millions of artists across the world.  

Listen to Lennon's heartfelt plea for peace below:

What sets Sandé’s version apart is it's simplicity and vocal honesty that Lennon intended for the song. It's her delivery that makes this a standout cover. Listen to the 4-time Brit Award winner's version below:

Imagine is featured on Sandé’s  critically acclaimed debut album, Our Version Of Events.
