Nice, but I'm afraid there's only one person who interprets this song with a feeling that melts the most harden's emotions.
ReplyDeleteThe rest of them are only Dreamin', man!

I admit to being a total square when it comes to knowing contemporary bands, so I've never heard of St. Vincent's, but I really enjoyed their interpretation of the song. I like the way they didn't rush through it, and that it's electric. Interesting too, to see young artists taking on a more mature subject matter. Nice post.

St. Vincent is a she, not a they. She's great (my 17-year-old son loves her). Bon Iver is also very good. Love those Neil covers!
ReplyDeleteHere's an example where getting a blue ray player for the Archives has paid dividends. I never spent too much time watching music on YouTube because of the small screen and poor speakers on my computer. I just watched this version of Harvest Moon (Great!)streaming thru the YouTube portal on my blue ray - playing on an HD TV screen and through my surround system.
ReplyDeleteI'd like to see more BD live downloads but I can keep occupied in the meanwhile surfing internet videos. Maybe I'll check out Sir Paul with Neil doing "A Day in the Life" again....
