Mike Tompkins - Forever and Firework
Mike Tompkins' latest. Be sure to watch through the end, where he shows you how he did it:
Forever Chris Brown A Capella Cover Mike Tompkins
The funny thing is that I am not interested in the songs he covers at all - until he covers them. As witness his cover of Katy Perry's Firework:

I am just fascinated by his creativity and consistent productivity. And the fact that he takes something mediocre and makes it more interesting.

My kids LOVED that! That was pretty awesome and he's very talented to be able to break the music/song out like that and recreate each sound by using just his voice and mouth. Reminds me of that black guy from the 80's movie "Police Academy" that was able to produce so many cool sounds using just his voice/mouth.
