Video Tuesday — Sadly sweet and beautiful

I dunno what it is about this sweet and simple cover of “Sadly Beautiful” that I like so much. But I do really like it. In fact, I listened to it twice before I even started this entry. I am sure you will like it too. Well, you will if you have any sort of taste at all.

Video Tuesday — Two great covers that taste great together

I really liked these covers of It’s a Wonderful Lie and Lookin’ Up in Heaven. Also this guy looks like just about every boy I ever had a crush on in college.

P.S. if you don’t get the joke in the headline here I feel bad for you and your lack of funny bone.

Video Tuesday — More Cowbell

How much awesomness can one video of a cover of “Can’t Hardly Wait” contain? Let me count the ways:
1. An accordian
2. Someone playing cowbell
3. Gold lame pants
4. It seems as though the stage is the short cut to the bathroom or something
5. A trumpet (like that original version)
6. Dude with cowbell at about 1:48 is really passionate about the cowbell playing
7. At about 2:22 a drunk girl appears to mimic jacking off aforementioned trumpet player
8. Loads of cell-phone-camera photographers

Video Tuesday — I listened to some really awful covers and then this one which was good

I’m still working on the short story that was so shitty God might smite the author for committing such a crime against humanity. Wish me luck.

Video Tuesday — An interesting take on Here Comes a Regular

It sounds kind of John Cougar Mellencampy to me. What do you think?

Video Tuesday — Blame Canada

The response when this dude asks if anyone has heard of Paul Westerberg is a little heartbreaking. An interesting choice for a cover. Lead singer dude is adorable.

Bob Reed of Overwhelming Colorfast covers “Color Me Impressed”

As I’ve seen some of my clips from the San Francisco 2006 tribute show posted here, I figured I might as well join the party. Here’s Bob Reed (of Overwhelming Colorfast) performing “Color Me Impressed.” The event was a Replacements tribute night at the 12 Galaxies nightclub in San Francisco on May 24, 2006.
