Covers

Lately I've been in a marvellous quest: finding all the musical covers artists have made to the songs I love the most. I don't even need to like the covering artists, I just feel like I have to hear their tributed version to whoever inspires them. I already got a few good ones, some of them were a real pain in the ass to find... Others are real rarities, which actually increases the pleasure of having them. Here's what I got so far, and of course I initially focused on The Smiths and Joy Division.

Belle And Sebastian - The Boy With The Thorn In His Side (The Smiths)
Low - Last Night I Dreamt That Somebody Loved Me (The Smiths)
The Smashing Pumpkins - Isolation (Joy Division)
X-Wife - She's Lost Control (Joy Division)
