I dont think Bjork will ever be "sucessfully" covered .. her music is of an artform, all one has to do is take a listen to Postal.
Agreed. That's why I think it was an arrogant move for him to try.

I know about his "cover" because it was mentioned in the SMH review of his DVD. I borrowed it to watch it, and found it horrific.

Anyway, sorry to trash this thread, just wanted my two cents in. I do understand that this is a thread for the fans - I'll butt out now :)

P.S. Björk's album is called Post, not Postal.

Yes, lol thanks for that .. tragic really as its in my itunes list :p

I do think Mayer did worse with the Kid A cover ... *sigh*, I think his jazzed up "everyday I have the blues" isnt bad though

Try!

So the trio album has been out for something like two months.....thoughts???

I reckon that this version of Vultures is absolutely sublime and he's so right about AKOG....it just works better with the trio!

And that competition to see JM3 which is exclusively for america?

*sigh*

I wish I lived in mayer-friendly places. I've seen myspaces where people show all the times theyve met up with John backstage.

Lucky bastards.

Continuum anticipation to the max.

I'm sorry I don;t make sense, I just get so babbly when it comes to John. Nothing else, just John.

*cries*
