We like a good cover on Propaganda a chance for a band to get out of their comfort zone and deliver something different form their usual material. Recently the art of the cover version has taken a bit of a knocking, with everybody supposed to have one for their promotional push and for that I blame Jo Whiley. But there are still some good ones out there and we asked the listeners for some selections and together we compiled the playlist for last nights show:
You’ve Got the Love – Florence & The Machine
Careless Whisper – The Gossip
I Heard It Through The Grapevine – The Slits
Hot Like Fire – The XX (Aaliyah Cover)
Cape Cod Kwassa Kwassa – Hot Chip & Peter Gabriel
Swastika Eyes – Autokratz
Lost In Music – The Fall
Catch – Art Brut
Superstar – Sonic Youth
Umbrella – Manic Street Preachers
A Day In The Life – Easy All-Stars
This should be up soon on the Xstream East listen again player shortly until then here are some of the covers we couldn't fit into the show:
Tom Williams and The Boat - Bonkers
China Drum - Wuthering Heights
Carter USM - Rent
