"Today, a young man on acid realised that all matter is merely energy condensed to a slow vibration, that we are all one consciousness experiencing itself subjectively, there is no such thing as death, life is only a dream, and we are the imagination of ourselves... here's Tom with the weather."

Whats with..
...me liking covers more than originals?.
<3 Frou Frou though this is just really really good.
This is a really good cover version. But somehow, no matter how awesome a cover is, the original always has this thing about it... The original creator of the music feels it more deeply and understands it more profoundly than anyone else possibly can. That's what I've always thought. Classic example -'Behind blue eyes'. Nobody can put the same soul into that song like The Who..
Hmm...lessee..Saw you for the first time at assembly. I didn't know who you were. I just saw your band perform. (That was you, right?) Then randomly heard about you from a couple of friends...next thing I know, you've turned up in mahe *eep!* And then I randomly came across this blog...
This song is AWESOME. The cover's pretty damn good too! Thanks!
ReplyDeleteAnd uh, Garden State is one of my favourite movies EVER. Kickass soundtrack... You should check it out.
Already seen it a million times, in fact, its one of my favourite movies ever :).
ReplyDeleteIts just that the soundtrack to the movie has given Indie-Elitists a new joke to snigger about when someone talks about the bands in the movie,
i.e - "Hes got GardenState taste"
Ah well =/.
