Original
Havana by Camila Cabello
This was the first time I'd watched the video and I was really blown away. There's a wonderful story-within-a-story thing going on (two layers deep, even...) - Just an excellent video all around - including the message - to build your own story/ending/dream.
Combine this with excellent vocals, catchy lyrics and tune and you really do have a winner.
So, let's see what other people can do...
Havana presented by SuperLego Life
I'm not sure what they did with the lyrics, if they actually redid it (don't think so) or play with the pitch/tempo to make it sound different (probably) - but I chose this because they did a painstakingly wonderful job at acting out the entire video with Lego! (Gotta love the grandma - and the man with the hairy chest.) Great job!!!
Havana presented by Giselle Torres - ft. Samy Hawk
This is another one where the video is excellent. Although it's not the same, the flavor is definitely there. The vocal ability is great too, and watch those back dancers - especially the guys with their splits! Beautifully done - and filmed in Little Havana, Miami, Florida.
I Wanna presented by Pankayz
Have you played on Roblox? Meep City? Then, you will know the truth of this song.
The vocals were good, the lyrics well-written. The video really is excellent with lots of people playing together, very well choreographed to keep the flavor of the original Havana video. Definitely worth a watch.
WTF selection of the day
Havana presented by Key of Awesome
This is for everyone who watched the original and wondered why the grandma was played by a man!
The vocals are great, the lyrics fun, so worth a watch.
Parties in Manila presented by Mikey Bustos
I've featured him recently, and am happy to do it again. His voice is good, his lyrics fun and his videography is great, making you want to watch more of his work - so, a win.
Today's Finale!!!
Savannah presented by Baby Gizmo
It's unusual for me to feature weaker vocals for my finale, but she did such an awesome job with the lyrics and mimicking the original while having it pertain to her as a teenager (probably pre-teen) that I felt it really did deserve this position for this foray. I especially love the "World's Greatest Dad" t-shirt touch. They even end with some of their bloopers.
That's it for today! I hope you had as much fun as I did!
As usual, I'm simply sharing YouTube videos on a theme, all rights remain with the original.
