Rude is probably one of the best songs to hit the radios this year. Magic’s instant classic has inspired underdogs all over the world to go after the girl, and despite people debating on who is on the right on this one, whether it’s the dad or the suitor, the song has managed to attract millions of views on YouTube, making it one of the most successful hits of 2014.
The song has inspired some singers to make renditions of their own. Here are some of the best covers of Rude on YouTube.

1. Scott Bradlee and Von Smith
Von Smith’s suave 50’s twist on Rude will have you snapping and twisting those hips. With Scott Bradlee on the piano, the band plays Rude the way it should have been sung in the first place. Conservative father encouraging his daughter to marry the richer one instead of the jobless hippie. What isn’t 50s about this song?
BONUS: The Dad’s Side Of The Story!
To be fair, the dad’s got a point not wanting to marry his daughter to the protagonist. Here is Benji Jenna Cowart adding his own twist to the song.
