Covers: Patrick Wolf version of "Running Up That Hill"
2008-02-21 00:45:00 Placebo's version of "Running Up That Hill" (Originally by Kate Bush) is one of my favorite covers of all time, and this afternoon I found a Patrick Wolf cover of the song that rivals Placebo's. He completely changed the track's arrangement and made the song unrecognizable, but the original's soul is still very present.

Covers: Chromatics does "Running Up That Hill"
2007-12-05 23:40:00 I never cared about Chromatics that much (mostly because I thought "Nite" was one of the worst songs I had ever heard), but this is some pretty good work from them. They did an electro-style cover of "Running Up That Hill" by Kate Bush and recently made famous to a new indie generation by Placebo. It's a nice half-way point between the two; it's not ridiculously over-the-top (not just regular over-the-top, but 80's over-the-top) like the original, and not dragged down by ugly vocals that take several listens to get used to. Don't get me wrong, I think Placebo's cover is brilliant, but those vocals are really hard to take the first few times around. But this is the near-perfect balance of subtlety and accessability.
