Great Cover

So, I came across this cover of Big Star's "Blue Moon" on Pitchfork a few weeks ago. Since then, I haven't been able to get it out of my head. Redone with a few twists, resonating, pulsing drums and balanced piano work yield a drifting, fleeting existence. Kendal Johansson delivers lyrically, she determinedly captures all the pleading, yearning, and unwavering emotion of the original. It doesn't hurt that the video is truly fascinating as well.
