We need to talk about Robin Pecknold's version of Corduroy

Post by lecherouslittlestump »

It's absolutely incredible. Better than any live version from PJ. On equal to the studio version.

I don't think Fleet Foxes made a single song I disliked, but at the risk of sounding like a meathead rawker, a song like "Corduroy" really shines the light on the "indie/folkie wimp" side of these dudes' personality. I don't even like this as well as the version that Eddie did with those two Italian guys.

Completely forgot about this. Admire it, but not personally crazy about it. Agreed with KD, just doesn't suit his style/vocal style.

the only people who should sing corduroy are people who could at least hold their own in a fight.

Dunno what's more embarrassing, this performance or Fallon's old stage setup with the audience in the back and sides of the stage.

I've taken dumps that are more exciting.

I love the chicks bopping around in the background sarcastically.
