Cover Tuesday 18: On Wednesday!

Cover Tuesday 16 covers
Unless you can pull an awesome cover off!

Not even the calendar can stop me from posting some covers! Tuesday was really busy for me + no planning = Cover Tuesday on Wednesday.

But I’m sure you don’t mind.

Coldplay – When You Were Young (The Killers cover): The mp3 does have a really long live introduction (sort of), but the cover is worth it. I do know the quality will bug some people, but this was the best I could get my hands on. If you’ve got better, please share.

Fiona Apple – Across the Universe (The Beatles cover): “Across the Universe” is arguably the best Beatles’ song ever. Hell… it’s arguably best song ever written. This female vocalist spin on it is a very nice touch. Though, I’m still a fan of Jim Sturgess‘ theatrical version. 

Franz Ferdinand – Mis-Shapes (Pulp cover): Franz Ferdinand have a knack to cover songs how the Arctic Monkeys cover songs: banging on a guitar whilst hollering post-punkesque vocals.

Kasabian – Out of Space (The Prodigy cover): It’s been a long while since I’ve even thought about Kasabian. File this cover under the “Better Than The Original” category. 

John Mayer – Kid A (Radiohead cover): I won’t front. I do enjoy myself some John Mayer tunes. He has a great voice and, depending on my mood, his tunes can be real tear-jerkers. But it’s hard not to do that Juno “WHOA! DREAM BIG” thing when you listen to this cover. Maybe tackling “Kid A” wasn’t a good idea. Stick to the easy stuff — “Creep,” anyone?

    Cover Tuesdays?! Well… I think I love this blog. How come I can only get at a handful of podcasts?

  2. I was super interested when I got linked to this Coldplay cover. It was, in my opinion, the worst out of this bunch. Fortunately, the other ones were surprisingly great! Thanks, for the post.

  3. This Is Nothing To Do With Cover ‘Tuesday’
    But.
    I LOVE THIS FRICKING BLOG
