Fabulist!

LAND OF MUSIC

Sometimes, I need a song to curl under, a song to pull over my head and hide with. On this sunny Monday afternoon, have some aural blankets to cuddle up to, some cover songs for coverings. Go on, have a snuggle :)

Elliott Smith - Thirteen (Big Star cover)

Phosphorescent - You've Lost That Lovin' Feelin' (Righteous Brothers cover)

Andrew Bird - Oh Sister, feat. Nora O'Connor (Bob Dylan cover)

Patti Smith - Here I Dreamt I Was An Architect (The Decemberists cover)

Sophie Zelmani - Most Of The Time (Bob Dylan cover)

Photo from foundphotolj - their photostream of found photographs is simply beautiful.

HURRAH! :D I'm so glad. 'Thirteen' is probably one of my all-time favourite covers, evereverever (that, and pretty much anything Nina Simone sings). It got me listening to Big Star for the first time, too, which is reason enough to adore Elliott Smith (as if I needed any more reasons :P)

Henrik - thanks! What is it about the Swedish music scene? Unreal. You must have secret music coolness potions. This would be the dude in question, no?
linky linky for anyone curious...
