We Are Going To Be Friends [Jack Johnson / White Stripes]


This cover was used on the soundtrack to the Curious George movie. The man with the yellow hat is so gullible. Don’t trust George, he takes advantage of you. Also I’m a Nigerian Prince.

I've Been Loving You Too Long

To quote Spin Mag :

The White Stripes may have called it quits, but their vault continues on. Two previously unreleased tracks from Jack and Meg White have been released via Jack's Third Man Records Vault subscription service ...

For the [Otis] Redding cover ... the duo add their bluesy scuzz to Redding's classic from his 1965 album Otis Blue. The tempo is a bit faster than Redding's original, and the Stripes do without the horn section, but White makes up for it with some awesomely gnarly garage-rock riffage.

Sexy Nation Army

Not quite a cover, not quite a mash up. Take the lyrics of Sexyback put them to the tune of Seven Nation Army and give it to some guy I went to college with and you have a hot bowl of steaming musical goodness. 

Download this cover and a bajillion other free mp3's of Josh Woodward's music from his website.

Seven Nation Army [Oak Ridge Boys / White Stripes]




As has already happened way too may times in the young life of this blog, I'm in the middle of making post, and as I'm composing it, adding links to Amazon.com's mp3 store so my readers can buy the tracks (*Hint*), I find something else entirely, and scrap the already almost done post completely. 

That was so the case tonight. It's a virtual dart board matching up song with artist. If you were going to have anyone cover the White Stripes' Seven Nation Army, you would guess a band in genre. Perhaps vaguely related, heavy metal, perhaps rap, maybe a marching band. If someone had told me before tonight, that the Oak Ridge Boys were covering the song, I would have laughed, because honestly I thought they died in a plane crash in the 80's. Actually maybe the did ... Wikipedia has an incomplete list of 40 different members throughout their history, kind of like an old white guy Menudo. Also according to Wikipedia, for a while they were called Oak Ridge Starship before changing their name.
