YouTube is filled with videos of people covering songs in their living rooms. I find myself perusing them at random sometimes. Most of them are, unsurprisingly, bad. But every once in a while...
This is katem3, and her version of "A Comet Appears" by the Shins. It equals, or perhaps -- dare I say -- surpasses the original. I can't stop listening to it.
The internet is a good thing, kids.

So you dare to say, perhaps... that the Shins are even more off-key in the original?
ReplyDeleteIn seriousness, she's not that bad, but it's not saying a whole hell of a lot in the world of YouTube song covers.
And no, I refuse to ever believe that the Internet is a good thing.
Hi, I'm Kate. I did this cover.
ReplyDeleteThank you.
Or not, in this case.
ReplyDeleteI agree that this cover's a little crap to be honest. It was ages ago I did it...
I'd definitely do it better now.
But hey, I'm not here to change any opinions. Just thought I'd put my 2 cents in.
Thanks, again.
