Holy Ghost! - I Wanted To Tell Her (Ministry cover)



Accurate and faithful to the original, Holy Ghost!'s cover of "I Wanted To Tell Her" is arguably the more refined piece, adjusted for the listener's of today. LCD Soundsystem fans will feel right at home.

The original...

Twin Shadow - At My Heels (в моих пятках)




Watch for the ridiculous/hilarious commentary. Listen for the beautifully love-struck song. Bangladeshi Bowie indeed...

Greatest Hits - Uptown Girl


No, no, this is not another Billy Joel cover. Greatest Hits' "Uptown Girls" is more of a tribute to the sleazy dance-pop music and ridiculous video effects of the 80's. And the awfulness of it all is done quite well, it's almost shameful to like. This is the party girl having too much fun on her own with the karaoke machine getting nothing but dirty looks. But can you blame her? That beat is just seductive!

Also check out the destructive, catchy, and (of course) sleazy "Stop and Go".

Gorillaz - Doncamatic (All Played Out) [Feat. Daley]



Gorillaz haven't finished their Escape To Plastic Beach world tour yet and they've already cooked up a new single. "Doncamatic" has all the sounds that belong in the Plastic Beach album but its song-aware lyrics don't quite fit with the overall theme of the album. Daley's electro-smooth vocals lead this synth-heavy song to a dancey, brain worm chorus making this a sweet tune that's also radio-friendly.

Duck Sauce - Barbra Streisand



Just from looking at the title, this is undoubtedly a ridiculous premise for a song with any substance whatsoever. But after all, this is Duck Sauce, who cares about substance?! This is about having a good time (with Barbra Streisand apparently, don't try too hard to visualize it). Unlike like the excessively nightclub friendly original mix, the video edit has enough quirks and laughs to be considered fun. Even Vampire Weekend's Ezra Koenig is "OooOOo"ing along on webcam!
