A spontaneous autobiographical disclosure. A free-form slo-mo listening party. A song a day. Yours to enjoy.

Cover me (Ukrainian edition)
If you're gonna cover the Smiths, you'd better bring your A-game. (Cue mental picture of the Mozzer going one-on-one with Kobe Bryant.) By the high standard we demand for anyone taking up the challenge, these boys come at it from left field and absolutely nail it. They've got a 4-song EP of Smiths adaptations. It's well worth seeking out, but I think this is the best of the batch. Makes me want to down my beer in one gulp and flail around the hinterlands.
Does anyone speak Ukrainian? Have these Ukrainians changed the lyrics to address Eastern concerns? I will barter for a translation.
We are not in it for the money. Songblague runs on communitarian values, love of music, and a dash of vanity. If you like what you're hearing, please purchase it from one of the remaining retailers who would like to sell it to you.
