Amazing Cover(s)
I'm completely obsessed with Gillian Welch's cover of Radiohead's Black Star. It's one of my favorite songs from The Bends but Gillian's version of it is completely original. Her voice and the way she sings with David Rawlings haunts me. I wake up singing "I keep fallin' over, I keep passin' out when I see a face like you." Her twist on it makes me ache. Check it out here.
and BTW, the 3-song Black Star EP is effing amazing. To cover Neil Young and Radiohead in one sitting takes balls.
