One of my favorite vocalists, Brendon Urie of Panic! At The Disco performed a couple covers of Frank Sinatra songs at tonight’s APMA Awards in Cleveland, Ohio.

But tonight Brendon Urie gets my big stamp of approval on his covers of not only one but two songs!! Also Brendon did win the Alternative Press Award for Best Vocalist during the show. With some help from the Contemporary Youth Orchestra, Brendon perfomred “Luck Be A Lady” and “Fly Me To The Moon.” This isn’t the first time Brendon covers Frank.

Check out the video of his performance earlier tonight at the APMAs. Here is another video of him singing Frank Sinatra’s I’ve Got [Read More]
