So I know this is a little late since this song was uploaded in Dec last year, but it is brilliant.
I grew up with Simon and Garfunkel in that my parents were fans, so I have always loved their music and this version of "The Sound of Silence" by Disturbed is brilliant. The powerful ending is simply amazing and the lead singer has a fantastic voice.
Picked this up from reddwarf75 (thank you so much for posting those vids).
This is Yohio - a very pretty jrocker from Sweden. He's through to the final of the Swedish Eurovision Song Contest competition.
(Here's one bio for him http://www.jpopasia.com/celebrity/yohio/)
He also has other songs out there (wow does he sound like Gackt some times and can he play the guitar):
And he's part of a band called Seremedy (http://seremedy.com/)
This song is called No Escape and it a little harder than his solo stuff. He's also the backing singer and guitarist not the lead vocal. Warning, the video might be triggery for some; it has blood and suffocation in it.
I was pointed to this song by someone in my circles on G+ and I am so glad I saw the link. It's a truly superb song and the band Fun. have an album coming out in Feb. The song is called "We Are Young" and it's brilliant. Nate (the singer) has an amazing voice and the way the chorus soars is amazing.
I like the normal version of this, but the acoustic is simply superb! I have been singing it since the first time I watched it and I may have had the vid on repeat for a while. When Fun.'s album comes out I am so buying it.

This is the non-acousic version as well. Odd vid, but cool :)
Their website is here: http://www.ournameisfun.com/home/
They have a couple of their other songs on there too as well as some behind the scene's stuff.
