Lisztomania by Edwin van Cleef (Phoneix cover) featuring Jane Hanley (download here)
This is a pretty awesome cover of the Phoenix song.  It’s been in pretty heavy rotation over here.  Also works as a great workout song.  The DJ, Edwin van Cleef, is an electronic producer from Leeds, UK.  Good stuff

The Prettiest Thing by The Avett Brothers (download here)
Great little folk song originally written by David Childers. The refrain says it all: “I can’t remember what we talked about, i just remember your face. The prettiest thing i had ever seen.” Also has a really cool video.

Space Oddity by Natalie Merchant (cover of David Bowie) (download here) (Buy from Amazon)
She has such a great voice and this is a great song for her. A classic tune that sounds fresh with the 10,000 Maniacs singer on it.

Superstition by Gypsy Soul (download here) (Buy from Amazon)
I know i posted a cover of Stevie’s classic earlier this week (here), but this one was too good to keep from you. Just so bluesy. I love it

Me and Julio Down By The School Yard by Peter Bjorn And John (Simon & Garfunkel cover) (download here)
A fun cover of the Paul Simon classic. I’m a sucker for songs with lots of whistling and this one doesn’t disappoint on that front.

Left of the Dial by Gaslight Anthem (Replacements Cover) (download here)
This is one of those tunes where i don’t know the original, but the cover is so good that it makes me go back and get it. Apparently the lead singer has stated several times that without The Replacements there would be no Gaslight Anthem, as they are heavily influenced by them, especially this particular song.

Santeria by Aimee Allen (Sublime cover) (download here)
Sublime songs just get in your head so easily. Nothing like a good cover to get your Thursday going

Faithfully by Clem Snide (Journey Cover) (download here)
Sometimes you’ve heard the original so many times that you need the cover to allow you to keep enjoying the song. So, here’s a new spin on the Journey classic
