Wish Grimes had used the old version of REALiTi for Art Angels. It's miles better than the album version and probably the best thing she's done

Yep. Luckily she still included it as a bonus track. The real tragedy is that she’s never gonna release that album.

Is this cringey?
I think it's cringey. What other examples are there of old guys playing their early 90's hits to a mostly bored audience?

My god that is such an awful song.
Watched the first minute of it then decided to skip ahead randomly at various time stamps. 9/10 times id land on "and if you..."
Didnt harmless love this band?

Yeah... maybe I'm projecting the cringe cause I think the song is so lame. If I were in the audience I'd be maybe bobbing my head out of sympathy and that's what I assume those people are doing.

i don’t dislike that song though it probably has more to do with nostalgia than anything

I really, really, really...really, hate Kevin Morby and Waxahatchee's cover of "Farewell Transmission." Not quite as bad as Jim James' version, but still awful. That song might be uncoverable.

The real cringy part is the added audience noise at the start

That is truly abysmal. Molina's delivery is such a singlular part of why this song works, something this rote, uninspired rendering utterly fails to capture.

I like Kevin Morby and Waxahatchee ok but yeah this doesn't really work. I don't hate it as much though.
