Have they done a formal cover of the song yet? aside from the bootleg that's available here and there on the net.

edited to add...

Song that owns me right now is Wigwam by Bob Dylan that I tracked down when compiling a makeshift Tenenbaums soundtrack.

got the same one. this reminds me of a cover this smalltown band did of Love Inc's "You're A Superstar" at my cousins wedding. Now I wish someone had bothered to record that...wasn't bad.

if only they'd do a formal recording the way Iron and Wine tackled 'Such Great Heights'.

I'mN Luv (Wit A Stripper) is hilarious. The video has R. Kelly proposing to some girl's ass and proclaiming that "if I could / I'd put my whole head up in it!"

The two Okkervil River tracks 'Another Radio Song' and 'A Favour'. Holy shit is this band good. You owe it to yourself to listen to these songs right now.

I have a very bizarre bunch that I'm over playing right now:

1) Ain't No Sunshine - Bill Withers (The man puts more emotion into the repitition of two words then most bands put into their whole careers)

2) Ballad in Urgency - The Black Crowes (I don't particularly like Amorica but this is a great tune)

3) Supermodel Robots - Network (Green Day meets Devo, very weird but catchy)

4) B Movie Box Car Blues - Blues Brothers (Listen to Matt Murphy's guitar on the opening, that's a Strat at it's best, the rest of the song is a pretty decent cover of a Delbert McClinton tune)

5) Apocalyptic Modified Blues - Corb Lund Band (Local artist done good. Great tune that melds country and blues in a very unusual way)

Surfan Stevens "Chicago" brings a smnile to my face every time I hear it, so I've been listening to it on repeat a lot lately.

The Ratatat remix of Get "Em High" gets my body moving, so that also gets played a bit. "That's why we listen to your music in fast forward, cause we don't wanna hear that weak shit no more"

The Racontuers (sic) is some catchy shit. I'm digging, Hands.

Crazy Bitch by Buck Cherry is a good one.

I'll Melt With You by Bowling for Soup is a great cover.

The Night time is the Right time by Ray Charles is heaven.

Baby What a Big Surprise by Chicago is just...nice.

Hands down, Fat Bottomed Girls is the greatest Queen song-ever.

Extreme's 'Rest In Peace' has been on heavy rotation for a couple of months. The orchestration, guitar work, and chorus are glued together with such precision that it wins me over as a stunning pop/rock-fused gem.

Cat Power's 'I Found A Reason'. After hearing it in V FOR VENDETTA, I downloaded it right away and can't seem to forget about it.

The Fray's 'How To Save A Life'. Say what you want about this band, but that song puts an uplifting spellbind on me. Love the way the piano is integrated.

Radiohead's "Go to sleep" has been getting a lot of play on my ipod recently. That and "Here comes my baby" by Cat Stevens, probably because of it's association with RUSHMORE.

The Leonard Cohen soundtrack owns me right now, especially the covers of "Tonight Will Be Fine" covered by Teddy Thompson, "Chelsea Hotel #2" covered by Rufus Wainwright, and "If It Be Your Will" by Antony.

That last one's a fucking masterpiece, btw.

David Doobinin song called "Never Enough". He doesn't have a label, but he should. Google him if you're interested. Good stuff. Indie, mellow, pop-ish.

Where did you find this--I haven't been able to find the album anywhere?

Also, in the past few days, a little Richard Thompson ("Turning of the Tide," "Feel So Good") alternating with Vanessa Carlton's "White Houses" (as I'm a total sucker for good pop piano arrangements).

I can't take Destroyer - The Bad Arts off of any playlist I've made in the last few months.

And now I'm addicted to Page France - Air Pollution

And this great version of I See A Darkness by Will Oldham.

And the first six tracks of Sebadoh III

I've been kind of all over the place, but I'm crazy about:

"Imperial" by Strapping Young Lad. This band constantly impresses me, but this is my favorite creation of theirs. Super-duper extreme, epic metal.

"Wamp Wamp (What It Do)" by The Clipse. Fucking amazing beat. Top notch lyricism. Ranks up with "What's Up" on their classic Vol. 2 mixtape for my favorite songs by them. This is how materialistic, nihilist, drug rap should be done.

"Take Everything" by Clinton Sparks/D-Block. You'll never hear the theme song to Cheers the same way again.

"Lost Myself" by Jason Falkner. Pop perfection.

"Push" by The Cure.

Far Beyond Metal by Strapping Young Lad, which probably one of there best songs and has by far one of my favorite solos on it. It's a great song live, and I just got around to hearing the album version which is great that they finally did.

I don't know why but I can't stop listening to "Mama's Room" by Under the Influence of Giants. I think it's what The Darkness would be if they listened to KC & the Sunshine Band instead of shitty hair metal. I realize this is not a good equation.

Weezer - "Butterfly"

This one has been stuck in my head for days and won't go away, I barely know any of the words but I just keep humming the tune over and over again.

Also:

Daniel Johnston - "Frustrated Artist"

Seven Year Bitch - "Misunderstood"

Nine Inch Nails - "The Fragile"

Mindless Self Indulgence - "Faggot"

Most of the Peeping Tom record

http://www.myspace.com/peepingtomispatton

--saw them twice live already. Mike Patton's new band. I particularly dig:

5 seconds
Kill the DJ
Mojo
Your Neighborhood Spaceman.

Most of the songs start slow and low then build to a crescendo, come down, and repeat, in a good way.
