True, the whole downbeat cover of 80s hits shits me to no end, but this has a certain charm to it. Fuck that Donnie Darko film and everything it spawned though. Also, I hope Gary Jules sits on a rusty nail.

I think its because shes got a voice you can really sink your teeth into.

Its like passion pop, vodka, cheap cigarettes and canine distemper in auditory form.

You know what, recommend me shit again, but this times make it COVERS. Or dont, see if I care.

I'm in! Not sure this is going to be to your taste, or really most people's, but I do like Xiu Xiu's cover of Fast Car quite a bit.

My favourite cover of all time:

Placebo - Autoluminescent
https://youtu.be/vNxYlpNa5tw

Rowland S Howard is part of the awesomeness complex that makes up a cluster of my favourite artists, so I was tickled pink when Placebo covered them.

That said, I could spam covers by Placebo for ages.

I like Xiu Xiu a lot, but occasionally they'll venture too far into noise for me.

Here's one more. Ty Segall covering Neil Young's The Loner - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=weuwOQoyVOg

Shamefully, I have to admit I havent really heard enough Ty Seagall *or* Neil Young to judge it as a cover, but it definitely rocks as a song under its own merit.

The cover that gets me most in the feels, as kids these days would have said, if these days were probably a few years ago, now.

Camille OSullivan - Brompton Oratory
https://youtu.be/VzPdtc2-Hu8

The Boatmans Call has a special place in my heart as an album, and this is an exquisite rendition of one of the songs from it. My wife walked down the aisle to a song from this Cave album, so it could be that, but even so. BAM! Right in the squishy bits. It helps that Camille OSullivan has an amazing voice and is a brilliant chanteuse.

It was 2002. Id just graduated high school and bought a Bauhaus album on a whim.

18 years later, this is still one of my favourite songs.

I love Lily Allen's voice. Always have. Is this her playing the piano also? Impressed.

Occasionally, he asks for Batman singing mash it up

They are indeed great covers. The lass doing the Cranberries cover even manages to get the same sort of fluting effect in her voice as Dolores.

Cohen cover thats not *that song*!

She's Irish as well and a huge cranberries fan and that cover was done either the day or the day after Dolores died as a memorial.

Listening to it now. Its innovative and delightfully glitchy, but at the same time its faithful to the orignal.

Cheers, I love it.

So is the lead singer of the Smiths gay? I don't think I ever heard anything about him ever getting together with anyone.

He definitely is.

Edit: He definitely is Morrissey. Who knows? Apparently hes a pansexual imp, which I can totally get behind. Sources are conflicted.
