I have this really crazy cover of Honnou by Satoko Nishikawa. It is very slow with kind of acoustic guitar. It sounds nothing like Honnou except the melody is the same. I'm not sure if I like it, but it is quite an interesting take on the song. So that might get one of my votes as a top cover.
I agree with you. That's why I think this cover is not bad, it's just... uninteresting.
Is that Honnou cover avaliable somewhere?
