Cover Songs

Here are some cover songs for your enjoyment. I highly recommend the Wolf Parade...

Death Cab For Cutie - Bad Reputation
Originally performed by Freedy Johnston. This is an iTunes exclusive. They stay true to the original.

Bettie Serveert - Lover I Don't Have To Love
Originally performed by Bright Eyes. This falls well short of the original, but it's intriguing none the less.

+/- (plus minus) - Summerlong (boy version)
Originally performed by Emm Gryer. I'm not to familiar with the original (I've only heard it once or twice), but this cover is amazing.

The Mountain Goats - Pet Politics
Orginally performed by the Silver Jews. I'm a huge Silver Jews fan, but this might be better than the original.

The Decemberists - Clementine
Originally performed by Elliott Smith. Not quite as good as their Joanna Newsome cover, but definitely worth a listen.

Spoon - Decora
Originally performed by Yo La Tengo. Definitely not as good as Yo La Tengo, but it's Spoon.

Wolf Parade - Claxxon's Lament
Originally performed by Frog Eyes. Wolf Parade can do no wrong...
