Pete Doherty Doesn’t Understand Irony Either
1. Babyshambles, “The Lost Art of Murder”
This excellent ballad probably won’t help Pete Doherty’s case now that he’s under possible investigation for murder, but we like it anyway. [Planeta Pop Radio]
2. Foo Fighters, “Band on the Run”
Dave Grohl and friends turn in a not bad version of the Wings classic. [Fuel Friends]
3. Kanye West, “Stronger” (original version)
The demo for Kanye’s current single is exactly the same as the version you know, but with worse lyrics. [Nah Right]
4. Sondre Lerche feat. Regina Spektor, “Hell No”
Our third favorite Norwegian (after Roald Dahl and Liv Ullmann) collaborates with our first favorite Moscow-born anti-folk pianist. [Yellow Stereo]
5. Radiohead, “Killer Cars”
On this Bends b-side, Thom Yorke combines his fear of automobiles with his love of power chords with typically great results. [Snowing in My Room]
