it's a date.

Anyone (re)watching the remarkable (on many levels) "Dinner Party" episode of The Office may have just seen the commerical that aired after the show.

Cat Power doing "Space Oddity" is the song used for a commercial for Lincoln luxury automobiles.

oh god.

no.

no.


NO.



looks like i gotta kill another one..

i head it the other day-- it's a fucking good cover.

I HOPE SHE MAKES MILLIONS.

In your case? possibly. I'm carrying a bit too much luggage to possibly think of my arms as wings.

Hang on, I have a solution:

Do you mean the American Office, or the funny one?

alright, we're set then. see you next june.


someone link me to her cover of space oddity so i can decide whether i really do have to kill her or not.

she sounds better than bowie to my ears. but you're a bowie acolyte so you'll deny & deny. & it will go on forever.

i love love love love love david bowie but if it's a good cover i have no problem with it. but i will automatically assume it's bad even though she does good versions of bob dylan songs.

She sounds like Scarlett Johanson to me.

nah!

now, nerve gassing humanity on the other hand...

epic failure.

i'll get my gun.

oh, jealousy! show us your cover!

i'm not jealous in the least, she does the song NO justice. she does brilliant dylan covers but she's just not suited to the song at all. i'll record one if you want.

mmm-mmmm-mmmm!

we'll play it alongside cat power's...

I sounds like something you'd maybe use for a car advert or something.

i hope she makes MILLIONS.

i agree. it sounds liek it belongs in a car ad. and that's why i don't like it (in addition to it being a complete butchering of that song)
i'm sorry, she just missed the nail and hit her thumb on this one.

the funniest thing ever was when they used Pink Moon in a volkswagon commercial
that song is about everyone dying.

me too. I hope she becomes rich enough for her never to have to cover a David Bowie song again.

MILLIONS
