Some wonderful covers to finish your week
Have a listen to Jens doing Paul:
Jens Lekman - You can call me Al (cover).mp3
and Josh almost becoming the boss:
Josh Ritter - The River (cover).mp3
They got me thinking about some of the other standout covers of these two artists in my memory.
These are my favourites. What do you think? Any other additions?
Paul Simon (or Simon and Garfunkel) covers
Johnny Cash and Fiona Apple - Bridge over troubled water (cover).mp3
Grizzly Bear - Graceland (cover).mp3
"The Boss" coversAimee Mann and Michael Penn - Reason to Believe (cover). mp3
(thanks to Heartache with Hard Work for the link - I am having trouble accessing my own file)
Heather Nova - I'm on fire.mp3
A slightly shaky but still fabulous video of the ever amazing Jarvis Cocker doing State Trooper

Okkervil River - The Stage Names
One of my favourites from this year that have been confirmed for the awesome St Jerome's Laneway Festival in February. The Stage Names has been on constant heavy rotation this year, so I'm looking forward to seeing them live on our southern shores. This still remains a standout track for 2007.

Okkervil River - Our life is not a movie, or maybe.mp3

Basia Bulat - Oh My Darling

Am positively obsessed with this right album now.
Listen to Snakes and Ladders.mp3 - possibly one of my songs of the year,
then go and get the album - the whole thing is fantastic.
