Recently some movie came out with a little robot-box with a head made out of binoculars or something. Looks pretty cute. Regardless, there's this song in the trailer that goes "Aaaaaat Lasssssssstttttttt...My loooove has...come along". Said song gets stuck in my head for days on end. Difficult to sing the same 7 words to a song over and over and over without wanting to hear the whole thing. So a little hunting and pecking has brought Etta James to my ears with the full version. Booyah. A little retro Ella Fitzgerald/Shirley Bassey style jaunt that is sure to please. Listen in a smokey room with bathtub gin in hand.

Also, I recently stumbled across two covers that have inspired me to start writing a cleverly titled "Uncovered" segment. I guess I'll go back and forth between posting covers + originals and just posting covers. Today, since the originals are on my external, it's just covers. Anyway, a really great Bruce Springsteen cover by Jose Gonzalez and Junip of "The Ghost of Tom Joad" and a sort of mainstream, non-exploratory, but still good Smiths cover by Death Cab For Cutie of "There Is A Light That Never Goes Out". Enjoy.
