  1. Didn't realize James Blake covered this, I think it might be my favourite cover of this song I've ever heard (and I've heard a ton of covers of this song). James always does great covers because he's able to recontextualize songs well within his own style while maintaining the sentiments of the original. The minimalism of this cover manages to convey the emotional intimacy of the original though its instrumentation, while its performance articulates a sharp modern ennui. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=48ctczjFdQE
