I discovered SHIVAREE when their lead singer, Ambrosia Parsley, used to do this bit on AIR AMERICA RADIO (a rather left-leaning-for-Americans, meaning middle-of-the-road for the rest of us internet radio station) about seven years ago. Their lead singer has a deceptively growly, upper-range voice that makes my bonny-johnny do dances in my pantses (you can work that euphamism out on your... ah, there you see? you got it.. I knew you would). She used to sing a cute doggerel version of whatever the leading news story that week was in about a 30 second pop song - very cute very "edgy". Anyway. As he is wont to do, about 3 years later Quentin Tarrantino decided to give people the impression that he had "discovered" this cool group, and used their signature song for the closing credits of the second KILL BILL movie.

Anyway - here's the original video by SHIVAREE for their song GOODNIGHT MOON, which is EXACTLY what a Leonard Cohen song would sound like if Lenny was about 40 years younger and a rather hot young woman. Enjoy (and please smile for me, k?)
