    O God that song. I never heard that until I saw Donnie Darko. I listened to this nonstop for a while. Depressing couple of days, really.

    Have you ever heard the original? It's completely different:

    I can't say I have until now. It's a completely different feeling, not that it's not good, but I agree the Jules captured the lyrics better.

    Here's an example of the opposite, though I've posted it before on the forums.I love Xiu Xiu, but what he's done here is take a pop song with very little substance and given it a whole new vibe, which makes it really interesting, but still kinda creepy.

    Sublime did a great cover of the Grateful Dead.

    Great one. 40 Oz. To Freedom is the only Sublime album I think is 100% solid, their best work. I will always probably like Waiting For My Ruca best, just for the perfect minimalist beat and all those samplings. It's addictive, when you are using good speakers/headphones.

    OK, ya'll knew I was gonna post 60s, right? Baby, It's You was written by Burt Bacharach and first recorded by the Shirelles in 1961. The Beatles covered the song shortly thereafter:

    Then it was covered by Smith in 1969. Great song!
