When artists are known to have impressive vocals, it isn’t surprising to see a considerable number of requests from fans to cover songs they deem well suited for the artist’s voice or singing technique. This is certainly the case for Felip also known as Ken of SB19.
Aside from his officially released cover “Mistletoe”, Felip has been entertaining his fans with amazing song covers since the early stages of his career.
Best Song Covers by Felip
1. “Location” by Khalid
First on the list is “Location” by Khalid, a favorite among reactors. Released in SB19 Official’s YouTube channel in May 2018, this cover generated a lot of attention because of his deep voice that smoothly glided through runs and hums in the song’s entirety.
2. “Runaway” by The Corrs
After two years of waiting, SB19 Official posted another full song cover from Felip for “Runaway” by The Corrs. Playing an acoustic guitar, he serenaded the fans with his warm rendition of the classic favorite, all the while piercing hearts with occasional soft, gentle glances to the camera.
3. “Sabor a Mi” by El Chicano
Felip surprised his fans with a Spanish cover of “Sabor a Mi” by El Chicano. His matching red suit and flowy, long black hair added to the romantic flair of his short rendition. He delivered the song so well that even Hispanic fans were caught off guard by his beautiful delivery and excellent pronunciation.
4. “C.h.a.o.s.m.y.t.h.” by ONE OK ROCK
As Felip’s fans know, one of his biggest music influences is his favorite band, ONE OK ROCK. In one of his live sessions, he covered the band’s song ‘C.h.a.o.s.m.y.t.h.’. Listening to Felip’s heartfelt version of the song, one can’t help but wish he gets an opportunity to collaborate with ONE OK ROCK in the near future.
5. “Home” by Michael Bublé
Felip grew up with his grandparents in the province and had to move to the city to pursue his dreams as an artist. Seeing him cover “Home” by Michael Bublé while in bed made this emotional cover a favorite among many fans, some of whom could relate to the feeling of homesickness brought about by working away from their loved ones.
6. “You’re Still the One” by Shania Twain
Aside from his debut single “Palayo”, most of Felip’s discography focuses more on inward reflections and affirmations. Thankfully, his song covers aren’t short of love songs for fans to indulge in his sweet vocals. One of his most memorable love song covers is “You’re Still The One” by Shania Twain.
7. “Oceans” by Hillsong
Growing up in a church where his grandfather served as the local pastor, Felip was immersed in gospel music from childhood. This is why it wasn’t at all surprising when he delivered a moving cover of the beautiful worship song, “Oceans” by Hillsong.
8. “Best Part” by HER and Daniel Caesar
“Best Part” by HER and Daniel Caesar was Felip’s favorite song for a while, and he was known to sing the song both on and off stage for the fans. One memorable moment was when he covered the song as a wedding singer to one of his close friends. Wearing all white for the occasion, Felip looked a little shy but nevertheless delivered the cover gracefully for the newly wedded couple.
9. “Snooze” by SZA
Felip sent us all in a “Snooze” binge after covering the popular song from SZA. All cozied up in his hoodie, Felip played his guitar while serenading his fans with this catchy love song. Seen singing and humming “Snooze” while on concert tours and on live sessions with fans, we’re certain this has become one of his most favorite songs.
10. “I Want You” by SB19
Arguably one of the most requested covers from Felip to be released is his soulful rendition of “I Want You” by his own group SB19. Fans were all taken by surprise after hearing the two-part story shared in his Instagram account. His sultry low voice gave the song a soulful variation with what seemed to be a recording of his own voice with multiple layers in the background. To this day, fans are still waiting for Felip to release his official cover of the full song.
