Rap-Up.com || New Music: Taio Cruz – ‘Imagine’ (John Lennon Cover)

Taio Cruz aims to uplift a new generation with his cover of John Lennon’s 1971 classic “Imagine,” which he first debuted in Times Square on New Year’s Eve. The British singer stays true to the original on the piano-laced tune. “I tried not to mess with it too much because it’s such a classic song and so many people love it,” said Taio. “I didn’t want to make a dance version or a crazy up-tempo remix-sounding thing that people would absolutely kill me for.”

Taio is an amazing writer and producer.
He is probably the best dance pop vocalist out there today. Have you heard Katy Perry or Ke$ha live. Taio is a great singer.

Hey Jessy ! I really liked the pylialst you posted . All of the songs except for We Found Love is on the cd I play in my car all the time . I guess my favorite song would definitely be Fireworks . It is one song I can hear over and per again and it also really helps to motivate me to work harder and cheers me up when I blue.
