I am listening to my top-rated songs, and I realized a lot of the tracks are covers. Here are some of my favorites:
Your Love- Midtown covers The Outfield
Cruel to Be Kind- The New Pornographers cover the oldie (also done by letters to Cleo)
Where is My Mind - Nada Surf covers The Pixies (and almost do a better job!)
Word Up - Korn covers Cameo (word up indeed)
Bizarre Love Triangle - Stabbing Westward covers….I fogot who did this originally
Come Sail Away - Me First and the Gimme Gimmes cover the 70s song
Complicated - Ben Gibbard (of Death Cab) covers Avril Lavigne. One of the best covers ever.
Call Me - I Am The World Trade Center Cover Blondie
Yesterday I went to Northampton to see a Rilo Kiley and Nada Surf show. It was so lovely seeing live music once again. I even had my own indie rock boy toy as an accesory (aka Brandon). However, we did realize that we are getting older because:
-Our feet were killing us from standing- why aren’t there more seats at shows?
-The show was loud, but not in a good way- the soundboard did a poor job of mixing the bass/vocals
-Encores are annoying- we know you’re coming back out, so why not just play through so we can all get home by our bedtime?
Yikes, I’m almost middle aged. Soon I am going to be buying 3 albums a year, one of them being U2 or Rob Thomas. If you see that happening, but me out of my misery.
It’s no secret that I love animated gifs. Especially when they show Tom Cruise acting like just like me.

bizarre love triangle was done by New Order; Blue Monday also covered it.
aren’t you impressed?
