Lana Del Ray - Blue Jeans - by Me
Stayed up til 3:37 recording and editing 47 million layers of vocals for this, infuriating the neighbours and battling a dodgy mouse. Lana, I hope you’re happy!
Bottom line is: I’ll love you more than those bitches before.
In a particularly Radiohead-y mood today. So, I recorded a cover of an old favourite - Climbing Up the Walls.
I am the key to the lock in your house
That keeps your toys in the basement
Any James Vincent McMorrow fans out there?
Here’s me covering his ‘Follow You Down to the Red Oak Tree’
follow you down to the red oak tree
as the air moves thick through the hollow reeds
i will wait for you there until someone comes
to carry me, carry me down
see i have not i have not grown cold
i have stole from men who have stole from those
with their arms so thin and their skin so old
but you are young, you are young, you are young
then somebody laughs like it’s all just for hell
as though we could not be saved from the depth of the well
but the cloth that i make is a cloth you can sell
to pay for the gossamer seed
names get carved in the red oak tree
of the ones who stay and the ones who leave
i will wait for you there with these cindered bones
so follow me follow me down
follow me follow me down
follow me follow me down
follow me follow me down
Videooo from Lawrie Brewster for my ‘Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow’ cover. He’s a video-making-machine!

Put my (humble, acoustic) Babooshka cover on YouTube with a lil’ visual accompaniment by (ever-helpful and smart) Lawrie Brewster :)
Just did a quick and dirty cover of my most famous second cousin’s classic tune.
Kate Bush - Babooshka
So that trixy Lawrie Brewster challenged me to do a cover of a Rammstein song. I picked this one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wwtf9EJAoJw on account of there being a version in English and me figuring that the genre was enough of a challenge without having to pronounce a new language too :)
