Cannons’ cover of Harry Styles' "Golden," released on November 1, 2020, as the debut for their "Covers by Cannons" series, is a masterclass in adapting a pop anthem into a signature indie-pop vibe. By stripping away the high-energy folk-rock drive of the original and replacing it with their trademark synth-drenched "chillwave" aesthetic, the band creates a version that many fans consider superior to the original.
The core of this cover lies in its infusion. While Harry Styles' version is a sun-soaked sprint down the Amalfi Coast, Cannons’ rendition feels like a neon-lit midnight drive.
The heavy use of synthesizers and a distinct echo on the vocals creates what listeners describe as a "parallel universe" experience. Paul Davis’s production adds a polished, cinematic layer that aligns perfectly with the band's "otherworldly" reputation. Critical & Fan Reception
