    I’ve probably listened to this seven million times but just now it just dawned on me how much I appreciate how that dude just fuckin nailed the harmony with a sledgehammer and absolutely played the ever loving shit out of that banjo.

    A great cover doesn't try to sound like the original, it tries to pay homage to the song writer by infusing it with a little of your self. This is a perfect cover.

  • @natchy99
    @natchy99 6 років тому +7

    I love this cover, and the original at the same time. The original is very sensual. It makes me think of someone who is cursed, and trying to tempt someone into their lifestyle (or curse, if you want to imagine) because he is lonely. Lera Lynn's version makes me think of someone who is outcast, and trying to convince someone to share her lifestyle because it can help them both feel whole . Same lyrics, but two very different results.

    Say, say, my playmate
    Won't you lay hands on me
    Mirror my malady
    Transfer my tragedy?
    Got a curse I cannot lift
    Shines when the sunset shifts
    When the moon is round and full
    Gotta bust that box, gotta gut that fish
    My mind's aflame
    We could jet in a stolen car
    But I bet we wouldn't get too far
    Before the transformation takes
    And blood lust tanks and
    Crave gets slaked
    My mind has changed
    My body's frame, but, God, I like it
    My heart's aflame
    My body's strained, but, God, I like it
    My mind has changed
    My body's frame, but, God, I like it
    My heart's aflame
    My body's strained, but, God, I like it
    Charge me your day rate
    I'll turn you out in kind
    When the moon is round and full
    Gonna teach you tricks that'll blow your mind
    Mongrel mind
    Baby doll, I recognize
    You're a hideous thing inside
    If ever there were a lucky kind, it's
    You, you, you, you
    I know it's strange another way to get to know you
    You'll never know unless we go so let me show you
    I know it's strange another way to get to know you
    We've got till noon; here comes the moon
    So let it show you
    Show you now
    Dream me, oh dreamer
    Down to the floor
    Open my hands and let them
    Weave onto yours
    Feel me, completer
    Down to my core
    Open my heart and let it
    Bleed onto yours
    Feeding on fever
    Down all fours
    Show you what all that
    Howl is for
    Hey, hey, my playmate
    Let me lay waste to thee
    Burned down their hanging trees
    It's hot here, hot here, hot here, hot here
    Got a curse we cannot lift
    Shines when the sunshine shifts
    There's a curse comes with a kiss
    The bite that binds the gift that gives
    Now that we got gone for good
    Writhing under your riding hood
    Tell your gra'ma and your mama too
    It's true
    We're howling forever

    I love TV on the Radio doing this song on David Letterman (WOW) but- this is a beautiful take on it - a real keeper. You both look fine - beautiful voices, great arrangement- I'm betting Gerard Smith thinks he's hearing angels sing every time this is played ;)

    First heard this over a year ago and it's still one of my favorites. Sometimes just listen to it over and over again. The momentum is amazing and this guitar/strumming banjo arrangement is awesome. Thanks so much yous two!

    What a brilliant choice of a song to cover,it never would have crossed my mind to go the bluegrass route with it,but it sounds perfect. You two did an amazing job on this!

    You have to view songs like this separately and not as covers. You have to accept that a cover is never going to be like the original. You just have to appreciate the artistic rendition of such songs. They did a great job. I love this version.

      Ну как по мне, оригинальный трек прикольнее, хотя девчонка талантлива, да.
