Babyshambles - Janie Jones (The Clash cover) [mp3, HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!]
what a great tribute to a phenomenal song. if anyone thinks Pete Doherty is a washed up loser, just click above to be convinced otherwise. he's a genius indeed.
Andrew Bird - Being Green (Kermit the Frog cover) [mp3]
not only is this man incredible enough to cover a Muppets song, but he does so IN FRENCH. oh, Andrew, put me out of my misery, MARRY ME.
TV on the Radio - Heroes (David Bowie cover) [mp3]
trippy, but nowhere near the original
Flaming Lips-Seven Nation Army (White Stripes cover) [mp3]
the sirens are just the touch to make this sound ever so...Flaming Lips. weird and quirky and awesome
30 Seconds to Mars - Stronger (Kanye West cover) [mp3]
a band that I liked in high school covering an artist I can't stand who got more credit than a French group I really do love. the result sounds nothing like 30 Seconds to Mars, Kanye, or Daft Punk.
Ben Lee- Float on (Modest Mouse cover) [mp3]
very mellow, and I approve.
BONUS (x2):
Andrew Bird - Oh Sister (Bob Dylan cover) [mp3]
holy goodness gracious, this is just...wow.
Ben Lee - Kids (MGMT cover) [mp3]
quite unlike the original. slow, but pretty. "Kids" was my favourite song of 2008
I've put the virgins in my best of '09 because it only got released over here in the uk like last month
ReplyDeleteI love the Dylan cover ... Thanks
ReplyDeleteglad to oblige =)
ReplyDeleteYou're absolutely right about the Clash cover. Mr Doherty did a great work with that! Bigger thanks to the bonuses you posted.
ReplyDeleteyou're very welcome.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the great covers! I like most of the stuff but feel that "Kids" doesn't really works as a cover by any band I've heard.
ReplyDeleteyou're welcome =)
ReplyDelete"Kids" is just one of those things that was absolutely perfect in its original state. I quite like the Kooks cover of it, but yeah, I don't think anyone will be able to surpass the original
Andrew Bird - Being Green (Kermit the Frog cover) [mp3]
ReplyDeleteSays you're out of bandwith to download the song...
Would you mind emailing me the mp3? I really want the song. rsangster@gmail.com
Thank you!
the file has been reposted.
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure how easy this would be, but could you possibly repost the song files? That would be soooo awesome.
ReplyDeleteI posted a zip. enjoy.
ReplyDeleteto me this is a great part of the success of one disc, if you can catch the attentio of the public, you have the 50% of the final choice of the client.
