It would be nearing that time again. My resolution for this coming year is...no resolutions.I won't be out celebrating and getting even slightly inebriated this New Year's Eve. I have packing to do since I'll be getting on a plane early Saturday afternoon for some R&R and some TLC.
I shall return in a week, till then...
I'm one that believes if the original recording artist got as close to perfect as they could get with a song, then leave well enough alone. In these instances, the artists did amazing covers without taking away from or completely rehashing the original.
Bring It On Home To Me by Britt Daniel of Spoon (Sam Cooke cover) [deleted mp3]
This Must Be The Place (Naive Melody) by Arcade Fire (Talking Heads cover) [deleted mp3]
Mansion On The Hill by David Gray (live Bruce Springsteen cover) [deleted mp3]
Brother by Manchester Orchestra (Annuals cover) [deleted mp3]
Free Fallin' by Death Cab for Cutie (live Tom Petty cover) [deleted mp3]
This last one isn't a cover, but rather a B side to the "Oh Horatio!" single released in 2004. I wish Rasmus would put this track on an album because it really is a great song.
