“I Wanna Be Your Boyfriend” by Black Tambourine
Originally by The Ramones (2012)
Black Tambourine could cover the phone book and i’d be interested in hearing it, so it’s with great pleasure that I listen to their new EP which is comprised of covers from the catalog of The Ramones. “I Wanna Be Your Boyfriend” is shifted from a power punk pop jam into a bleary eyed shoegazer and it fits the track nicely. Definitely something you should be listening to on repeat this evening.
OneTwoThreeFour is out 5/15 on Slumberland.

“Irreplaceable” by Sleigh Bells

Shout by [Strangers]

We’re Going To Be Friends by Bright Eyes
originally by The White Stripes
The White Stripes original is aural strychnine, much like most of the White Stripes’ music. Mister Oberst and Co. made it awesome. Great cover, good job, high five.

This is a good cover, guys. Really good.
Can’t post as an audio post; it’s private on SoundCloud.

Bodies of Water - I Don’t Believe in the Sun (Magnetic Fields cover)
Cause it’s a pretty sweet cover of a pretty sweet song.

A.C. Newman - Take on Me (A-ha cover)
Cause it’s pretty, and Mister Newman is a badass.

Sarah Blasko - Hey Ya! (Outkast Cover)
Call this the most badass cover you’ll hear today! Last Friday Miss Blasko covered “Hey Ya!” for Triple J’s Like a Version and I love this like a Browncoat loves watching Firefly! My gawd, when an artist takes a song and just owns it (and really just creates a whole new tempo for it)…it just blows my mind!
TWO Sarah Blasko posts in a month? What the hell Sam?
This is awesome though. Not even a question.
Oh my. So good.
Amy Millan - I Will Follow You Into the Dark (Death Cab for Cutie cover)
Cause, in my opinion, this is one of the best songs ever written, and Amy Millan is a goddess.
