Back in 2000, Coldplay released "Yellow," an emotive power ballad that became their breakthrough hit and introduced the world to the band’s relentless vulnerability.

Now, 22 years later, Nigerian highlife star Adekunle Gold taps into the same emotional power and soaring vocals that made the original song so special, albeit with even more stripped-down instrumentation. 

In this episode of Reimagined at Home, dive into the singer's shimmering, transcendent interpretation of "Yellow." Gold relies on a piano line for his primary accompaniment on the song, putting a spotlight on his soaring, buttery vocals to drive home the song’s enduring message.

Gold is no stranger to a cover performance. His breakout hit was a 2015 highlife interpretation of One Direction's "Story of My Life," retitled as "Sade." Since then, he has released four albums, beginning with Gold in 2016. His most recent project, 2022's Catch Me if You Can, represents an amalgamation of influences, layering his highlife foundation with Afropop influences and genre-broadening ambitions.

And while his performance of Coldplay’s "Yellow" is proof that Gold's voice can find a home in any corner of the pop format he chooses, his performance of the track opts for simplicity in a way that feels very intentional. No dressed-up instrumentation or flashy production tactics appear in his performance; rather, its effect rests on the natural, emotional power of Gold's voice.

Gold takes a similar tactic with the visual elements of his performance. He performs the song from a sunroom, a sunlit garden outside the windows and a lush array of plants surrounding him as he stands at a microphone. No flashy production needed — Gold's interpretation of “Yellow” speaks for itself.

In the latest episode of ReImagined, soul-pop newcomer Dylan Chambers delivers a fresh, heartfelt take on "Uptown Funk", using an electric guitar to drive the performance.

In the year of its inception, Mark Ronson and Bruno Mars' "Uptown Funk" quickly made strides across the map, from a No. 1 peak on the Billboard Hot 100 to a Record Of The Year and Best Pop Duo/Group Performance win at the 2014 GRAMMYs. Ten years after its release, it is the ninth most-viewed YouTube video of all-time and was named one of Billboard's "Songs That Defined The Decade."

Chambers named Mars as one of his most influential inspirations and praised Silk Sonic's Las Vegas residency as one of the "greatest concerts" he has attended in an interview with Muzic Notez.

"Don't believe me, just watch," Chambers calls in the chorus, recreating its notable doo-wop ad-libs with the strums of his instrument.

Chambers dropped his latest single, "I Can Never Get Enough" on April 10, following his March release "High (When I'm Low)." Both tracks will be a part of his upcoming EP, For Your Listening Pleasure!, out May 17.

In 2022, Bruno Mars and Anderson .Paak had a memorable GRAMMYs night together as Silk Sonic. As .Paak declared on stage, they made a "clean sweep," winning every category in which they were nominated: Best R&B Song, Best R&B Performance, Record Of The Year and Song Of The Year. And it was all thanks to their smash "Leave the Door Open."

In this episode of ReImagined, R&B newcomers WanMor perform a smooth cover of the iconic track. Against a lush greenery backdrop, the foursome each take turns at the mic and come together for some silky harmonies.

"I'ma leave the door open girl/ That you feel that I feel/ And you want me like I want you tonight, baby/ Tell me that you're coming through," they croon with the same swagger Silk Sonic possessed in the 2021 single.

WanMor consists of the four sons of Boyz II Men's Wanyá Morris, with their moniker paying homage to their father's first and last names. Individually, they go by the stage names Big Boy, Chulo, Tyvas, and Rocco.

On March 29, the sibling quartet released their latest project, Alone With You — which also featured their previous singles "BABY" and "Please Don't Go" — via Beautiful Life Productions, Mary J. Blige's 300 Entertainment imprint.

Bruno Mars' GRAMMYs Legacy: How His 'Clean Sweep' With Silk Sonic Continued A Remarkable Winning Streak

Almost exactly two decades ago, Green Day traced the story of a lonely teenager, Jesus of Suburbia, in their seventh album, American Idiot. Its most notable chapter, "Boulevard of Broken Dreams," earned the band Record Of The Year at the 2006 GRAMMYs.

In this episode of ReImagined, Canadian pop-punk singer LØLØ delivers her take on the song, an ethereal acoustic version.

LØLØ is a longtime fan of Green Day. In an interview with Kerrang! magazine, she recalled their single "Good Riddance (Time of Your Life)" as the first song she learned to play. She later told idobi Radio that her 2023 track "omg" was "a bunch of intrusive thoughts jumbled into a song, wondering if I will ever be enough, or ever be as cool as Green Day."

This year, LØLØ released two original singles, "poser" and "2 of us," via Hopeless Records.

In 1994, Seal's completely self-written "Kiss from a Rose" won him the first GRAMMYs of his career for Best Male Pop Vocal Performance, Song Of The Year, and Record Of The Year. 

Nearly 30 years later, Singaporean songwriter Gen Neo takes a turn at the microphone with a synth-driven rendition of the romantic track for the latest installment of ReImagined.

"Baby, I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the gray/ The more I get of you, stranger it feels," Gen Neo sings in the iconic chorus. "And now that your rose is in bloom/ A light hits the gloom on the gray."

Much like Seal, Gen Neo has written the majority of his solo tracks. He also has an extensive list of songwriting credits for K-pop artists like Henry Lau, f(x), Super Junior, Eric Nam, and more.

Gen Neo has continuously released singles since 2023, including "Same Mistakes," "Unless We Try," and "Stay." His most recent track, "KISS&TELL," which dropped on Feb. 23, is a collaboration with fellow Singaporean R&B singer Ethan Low.
