Oh wow! I knew she’d done “The Great Curve” and I love it, but I didn’t realise she’d done a whole album.

I know what I’m listening to next.

Paramore plays it pretty straight. I may have to buy this just to hear other takes on those magnificent songs. The original is irreplaceable

Yikes… yeah, that has the ingredient X that these other totally serviceable covers don’t seem to.
What else by these guys should I be listening to?
