EXO have recently released their fourth album “The War”. Unlike their previous albums, the group has taken a leap in terms of music and theme. They have shown that they can take on any theme and do justice to it.
But today, instead of originals, we want to discuss the group’s covers. With vocalists like D.O., Beakhyun, and Chen, it is always enthralling to listen to their voices in songs other than their own. So, here are top 5 covers by EXO:
“Sabor a Mi” by D.O., Beakhyun, Suho, and Chanyeol
Fan projects are evidence of the dedication of fans towards their idols. But how far can a group go for their admirers?
In the year 2014, EXO decided to surprise their fans in Mexico. During KBS Music Bank in Mexico, Chanyeol, Suho, D.O., and Beakhyun covered Luis Miguel’s classic Spanish love song “Sabor a Mi”. Not only did it bring forth the beauty of their vocals but this cover gave Chanyeol a chance to showcase how talented he is.
Their pronunciation won the fans’ hearts as they appreciated the boys’ efforts to sing in clean diction. Chanyeol’s guitar playing added to the cover’s magic:

“All of Me” by Park Chanyeol
Chanyeol might be the lead “rapper” of EXO but he has got an angelic voice that he gives us glimpses of time and again.
In the year 2015, at EXO’s Love Concert, Chanyeol covered John Legend’s mega hit single “All of Me”. His deep voice maintained the intensity and emotion of this beautiful love track:
“If We Love Again” by Chanyeol and Chen
Chen is considered one of the best vocalists in the K-Pop world. Whether it be a fun single like “Ka Ching” or a serious ballad like “Miracles in December”, he has sung all kinds of song.
In the year 2016 he, along with Chanyeol, covered Do Won Kyung’s single “If We Love Again”. Chanyeol’s falsetto and the smoothness of Chen’s voice in the song wowed everyone:
“Really I Didn’t Know” by Chen and Beakhyun
Fans have always waited to see these two perform together. Two of the most versatile vocalists in the K-Pop industry came together to perform Im Hee Suk’s single.
“Really Didn’t Know” is a tragic love song in which each line expresses the pain of a lover over a beloved’s betrayal. Chen and Beakhyun were able to capture the emotion of this ballad:
“Boyfriend” by D.O. and Chanyeol
At Love Concert, fans got a chance to see D.O. and Chanyeol covering Justin Bieber’s hit single “Boyfriend”. They did an acoustic cover of the song.
D.O. is quite popular for his diction and he proved it yet again in this song. While D.O. covered the vocals, Chanyeol showcased his guitar skills on live stage:
EXO undoubtedly have some really good vocalists. These covers are a mere testimony to the claim.
