Colton Ford - Losing My Religion

This is the lead single off of his forthcoming covers album entitled Under The Covers. This is a cover of the R.E.M. classic. This is not the first time Colton has recorded a cover. However, this is his best attempt to date. Previous covers of "Signed, Sealed, Delivered (I'm Yours)" and "No One" were decent, especially the latter, however, neither had that x-factor to make them memorable. While Colton's version does not compare to the exquisite original, it is still pleasant. The aggressive 80's electro/pop production meshes well with Colton's vocals. This needs a nice extended mix with a nice buildup at the beginning to make it even better.
