I heard this great cover version of Ron Sexsmith’s “Secret Heart” on The Hills (shut up! =) the other day and it turns out it’s by Feist. I should probably know that since I really like Feist, but the thing is I never got around to listening to her whole album. Oh well. Also (and this has very little to do with the first part), in trying to find out more info about The Whitest Boy Alive (Erlend Øye’s side-project band) I came across a recording of them supporting another Norwegian (?) band called Cat 5 on a song called “Sexy” which I can’t tell if it is kind of good or just a dumb song. You’ll hear the chorus and see what I mean:
Feist - Secret Heart
Ron Sexsmith- Secret Heart
Cat 5 (with Whitest Boy Alive)- Sexy (Live)
