You know, some day I might do an ¸ber Then and Now of Prince songs. I find the most interesting covers of his stuff. Heck, we could do one just on covers from Purple Rain. I think that movies is 2nd in number of times I saw in a movie theatre. DVD’s, tv, video doesn’t count. We are talking in a movie theatre. The first is Grease. And I am not counting all the movies I saw over and over while working at a movie theatre.
Last time we featured a song from my Like a Version cd of covers. We are going to do that again this week. This cover, by Damien Rice, is why I bought the cd in the first place, although it turned out to be a treasure trove of interesting cover goodness. But this song… this is la cerise sur un parfait de la qualitÈ
When Doves Cry – Damien Rice
You know, I have a very odd, funky bootlegged copy of Aimee Mann and Ani DiFranco performing the song. I’ll have to find it and send it your way.
