Normally, I don't like song covers -- I'm always thinking, "But they're singing it wrong." However, Patty Griffin's version of Bruce Springsteen's "Stolen Car" is amazing. And, now that I mention it, all of 1000 Kisses is wonderful. One of the few albums I know that manages to consistently evoke a single mood for the entire length of the disc. (Though now that I think about it, Bruce's Nebraska is another one.)
What with all the work to be done (reunion is this weekend!), I should be listening to peppier music, I know. But you can't argue with quality.
