I'm torn. On the one hand Regina Spektor is a good musician and this was a more than decent cover.
But did this song really need one? And a video with scenes from a cute but soon forgotten CGI film?
I guess it won't hurt, but I hope the kids who like this will go after the roots and then also understand the creative distance between writing a song like that and doing a vaguely ethnically infused cover of it.

Agree. I don't quite understand the choice of the song in the first place (like because it's about a guitar :confused: ) The good point though is that more people might try and google the original. learn something and so on

The best thing Dr Dre ever recorded:

(Yeah, still going through every hiphop record ever, it's taking awhile)

I was about to say you've been on a hiphop kick for a while now already.
Even bigger than deth's 80s synthpop kick a while back.
While I'm posting... Josh Turner has become my favorite YouTube artist of late.
Pretty much everything he and his collaborators puts out is gold, like this little original they put out a few days ago.
He's bringing back an older style of musicianship and I like it.

As far as recent tunes of theirs go, (

The older I get, the more I realize there are massive areas of music I've never really listened to much. Like everyone else I was into the Beastie Boys and Public Enemy and Ice Cube and random old school hits but I never dove too deep into it. So now my after-work ritual is a bunch of Old Crow and a stack of old and new school hiphop and electro records.

I can't really handle this song, but I guess I want to share with other people its significance...
So Boom Boom Satellites is, for me, the best or anyway my favorite industrial/electronic band after NIN, and like it, one of the few that have been around and consistently great since the '90s.
I like(d) all 3 members. The keyboardist, Masayuki Nakano, has a great electronica sensibility and can create the perfect sounds for hardcore industrial to EDM to acid jazz. Their drummer, Yoko Fukuda, is my favorite female drummer basically ever.
And Michiyuki Kawashima was the vocalist, lead guitarist, and heart of the band.
He got a brain tumor. It went into remission for a few years and everyone thought he'd dodged a bullet. Then it came back, and he died last year.
The last song they recorded was a theme for the anime Kiznaiver called "Lay Your Hand On Me", six months before he passed.
I hadn't seen the video until now. It's literally Kawashima's daughter (confirmed by Nakano) happy as a clam, before anyone knew what was coming ... But the whole song is (
http://www.lyrical-nonsense.com/lyrics/boom-boom-satellites/lay-your-hands-on-me/) saying goodbye and in the end (in retrospect) she's letting go of him.
It's a happy song, cool beat, but I wasn't prepared for it.
It's skirting all the rational parts of my brain and giving me true feels I didn't expect.

Might have been covered already but perhaps not on a barrel organ...

It's satisfying to watch the note sheet fold back so neatly.
