Ummmm, I'm going to have to pass on those. My head started hurting after the second one sounded like the first. The tempo of the voice was on, but the music was just....loud. You must have a headache after listening all night. I'd call these tunes more of a reimagining/interpretation, or covers, than a remake since the music wasn't recreating the originals, so I wouldn't consider them a remake.
@sawmill 's, on the other hand, sounded like an original, so I could listen to that for awhile even though it was in that same rushed banging guitar instrumental style. Maybe I'm just getting too old, as Bach is starting to sound good.

That might explain it.

These kind of instrumental and Acapella appeal to me especially when they are acting out a story for it.

That's pretty good for as young as them kids are.

appreciate the suggestions sir!

I don't have Spotify or anything, so not sure what libraries they would exist in, but you can see.

Australian band - Powderfinger - specifically the album Space Odyssey Number 5.

NZ Band - Weta - only one album, Geographica. Phenomenal album.

NZ Band - They called themselves Shihad originally, then changed their name about the time they tried to break into the US scene, to Pacifier.

Multiple albums, I like the first one which is self titled IIRC, and under Pacifier, 'Love is the New Hate' was a more recent good one.

Split Enz, Neil and Tim Finn - had great material over the years - as did Dave Dobbyn and DD Smash.

Supergroove was a newer hip hop/funk/rock band in the early 2000's that were pretty good too.

We were fed a steady diet of UK and US music in rotation on the radio, until 'NZ on Air' came about, where the government told the TV/Film/radio stations they had to play 20% NZ content or lose funding. It led to a surge in home grown talent - the world wouldn't have known who Peter Jackson (Lord of the Rings) was without it.
