One of my all-time favorite Tiny Desk concerts:

That podcast got me to go through some of the U2 back catalog. I hadn’t listened to anything from them in a long time, but listening to Acting Baby brought back memories of driving around in high school with that is the cassette deck
There’s a cover album of Achtung Baby that is really good.
(confession: I love covers)
Depeche Mode - So Cruel
Garbage - Wild Horses
Killers - Ultraviolet (this track got me through 2020)
I kind of like covers aw ell, especially when they are really different. That sounds like a pretty good lineup @slippyfish , I need to track that down.
One of my favorite covers:
Yonderboi, Riders On The Storm (is it a cover or a remix?)
Started the day at my favorite coffee shop and they were playing one of my favorite albums from front to back. Nice way to start the day:
Lots of indie. I’m typically Pink Floyd/Lana Del Rey/Nirvana, but been on an indie kick lately. Peaceful to drive through town discovering the new sounds
I’m a sucker for slow, acoustic covers of fast, non-acoustic songs. Having recently played through The Last of Us Part II for the first time, I’ve had this little gem in my head lately.
This morning when I saw this thread, I was preparing for the weekly Music Game I host. We have a departmental meeting. I play a song, you tell me the name of the song, name of the artist and release decade. Correct answers get points based on a convoluted system and voila, winners at the end of the year.
@iab I want to play that game!
Sometimes I just pop on one of these chill playlists to get things done:
Been watching season 3 of Wu Tang. Awesome show if you haven’t checked it out. Shameik Moore who plays Raekwon sounds just like him!
I do like how Peaky Blinders did use different versions of the song in the show. I don’t know if that is an original to them, but it where I saw it first.
