Updated on April 2, 2017 at 6:15 PM

Bruno Mars is one of the most original artists on today's music scene, but that hasn't stopped him from covering every type of artist under the sun. The singer seems to be a go-to performer for tributes during major award shows, honoring Amy Winehouse, Bob Marley, Prince, and more over the years. He's also been known to put his own unique spin on Adele and Michael Jackson. Since we're all about the pop star, we're taking a look at his best covers. Some you've definitely seen, but others we really had to dig for. Take a look!

"All I Ask"

Mars covered this Adele tune in November 2016 while visiting BBC Radio 1's Live Lounge.

"Rolling on the River," "Eye of the Tiger," and "The Way You Make Me Feel"

This medley, when he covers Tina Turner, Survivor, and Michael Jackson, is from all the way back in 2010.

"Valerie"

One month after Winehouse's death, Mars covered her track in a tribute to the late singer at the 2011 Video Music Awards.

"Could You Be Loved"

Along with Ziggy Marley and Rihanna, Mars covered Bob Marley's 1980 hit at the 2013 Grammys.

"So Lonely" and "Message in a Bottle"

In 2014, Mars honored The Police by covering two of their hits at the Kennedy Center Honors.

"Let's Go Crazy" and "Jungle Love"

In 2017, Bruno Mars donned a glittery purple suit and busted out a tribute to the late legend Prince.

"California Gurls"

During a radio interview, Mars put his own spin on Katy Perry's 2010 tune.

"Whole Lotta Love" and "I Don't Wanna Lose Your Love"

Mars spontaneously performed Led Zeppelin's classic song and The Outfield's "I Don't Wanna Lose Your Love" during the 2014 Wireless Festival.

"Dreaming of You"

Before launching into "When I Was Your Man" at a concert in 2014, Mars covered some bars of Selena's 1995 ballad.

"Can't Help Falling in Love With You"

Yes, that's a teeny, tiny Mars in 1992's Honeymoon in Vegas. Fun fact: he was the world's youngest Elvis impersonator!
