#songoftheday = SMOKE SEASON: “PSYCHO KILLER” (TALKING HEADS COVER)
Talking Heads' "Psycho Killer" is a timeless classic, obviously, but I dare say this cover by Smoke Season is even better than the original. They've turned it into a downright mesmerizing trip-hop song that's twice as eerie as the Talking Heads version and the video is equally...

"Somebody help me..." Say Lou Lou's new single is a cover of the Bee Gees classic "Stayin' Alive" and it's Fabulous with a capital F. Completely and utterly gorgeous. At times, it's a faithful enough cover, but at others it's a reinvention. If I'm...

"Oh, baby, baby..." never sounded so sweet as it does on Tove Styrke's luscious cover of Britney Spears' very first single, "...Baby, One More Time," which Tove has given a new bass groove, equal parts funky and electro. The basic construction and tempo of the original...
