Very fond of Frank Carter's version of 'Nothing Breaks Like A Heart' Everything But The Girl do a really sweet cover of 'The Only Living Boy In New York' The Black Keys 'She Said' slaps White Stripes 'Jolene', obviously Miley Cyrus 'On A Roll' (that counts right?) and 'Head Like A Hole'

Other than Hurt by Johnny Cash and any version of The Sound of Silence, what are your favorite cover versions of famous songs?

The Inside Out characters in my head (yes it's *that* picture again)

Been a looong day. Son's GF was puking all night and all today, been checked at the hospital for appendicitis but looks like it's 'just' a bad bug or food poisoning. With everything nobody's had much sleep, and maybe won't tonight either

Cartlidge holds Suffolk South. Fucksake. At least we kept Reform in 3rd place :(
