The Civil Wars - The One That Got Away

Love the Civil Wars. Their cover of Disarm by the Pumpkins is great.

It's a lovely cover. The first time I heard it, I didn't realize what it was until the second time he sang the chorus.

I have soooo much listening to do. This draft came right at the start of the semester and Hil having work travel. I've been completely unable to keep up

[ABNorman]

Abnorman, did you get the version of Bad As Me with the three bonus tracks? They're better than the bulk of the album, excepting maybe hell broke luce, chicago, and new years eve

Nopers - I was wondering why I had no idea what that song was. It's a good 'un. I'll have to go download 'em. I usually prefer to get standard editions to judge them on what got put out, like a bonus CD will somehow dilute the experience, or something.

HUGE SP fan so I'm iffy about Pumpkin covers but this is great. They harmonize perfectly. Her voice is like a warm hug on a cold night.

Absolutely. Like the best covers, they totally make the song their own. It doesn't detract at all from a fantastic original. But they manage to completely turn it into a Civil Wars song. It's lovely.

Their Billie Jean is great too. Not as great as Cornell's but few things are better than CC's voice.

I goddamn LOVE Cornell's Billie Jean cover.

[Jorge]

It's certainly way better than his cover of "Ave Maria". Woof.

[Heathen]

Brett said to skip him for this round, people.

[Heathen]

So technically bugs' turn is over and numbers is on the clock.

[stip]

Pm bugs please. I'll forward you numbers pick. But since bugs was never notified I want to give him his two hours for 8 and 9

[Heathen]

yeah, sounds fair, he was just here not long ago too

[puttermesser]

is it too early for malloy, alex and i to vote for heathen?

[ABNorman]

Is Numbers up now?

[stip]

Yup. I'll make his picks in a second

[stip]

Numbers chooses:

Phantogram- Fall In Love

The Shins- Simple Song

[stip]

Brett and Bugs are skipped

[stip]

This is another personal song for me. I had never heard of Cloud Cult, but they were being interviewed on NPR a few months before my first child was born, and they played this song. It was really powerful, and this remains the song I most closely associate with her birth--the hope, anxiety, expectations, powerlessness, and desperate desire for something better.
