Day 6: A song that’s over 5 minutes long
I first heard part of this song in the season finale of Shoresy. It had not yet been released, and I had to wait for a few months for the whole thing to come out, and when it did, I just loved it.
"You’ll be happy in a little while
You’ll be happy in a little while
You’ll be happier in a little while (So they tell ya)
You’ll be happier in a little while(oh they tell ya)
You’ll be happier in a little while
It’s just a matter of time..."
Jared Keeso picks most of the music for his shows, and both of them have introduced me to a lot of great music. He has used a few songs by Canadian musician Art d'Ecco several times.
"Serene Demon," Art d'Ecco (7:50)

Day 4 - A song under 1 minute:
The story goes that the band recorded this live in studio with all members present. I'm pasting the lyrics because they are really short and fast here, but I always do a love a 'fuck corporate rock' message.
Don't believe a word
A word they say
It's more than a T-shirt
It's more than a tattoo
It's more than a phase
This is how I was raised
You keep trying to market this feeling
I heard what you said
And no were not the same
No were not the same
You'll never be a part (of what we have)
You'll never sing a song (that we love)
You'll never get respect
And you can't fool us
'Cause we know what you are
Don't believe a word
A word they fucking say!

Day 5: A cover song that’s better than the original (you can post both)
Thank you, I will post both. I ended up down a rabbit hole looking for this, and it was delightful. Let me start by saying that I love the original, to the point that a friend and I were joking that if we go to see Wheatus, can we get them to play it more than once? Yes, that's mean, and they have other songs, and blah, blah, blah.
Anyway. This cover is brilliant, and totally changes the tenor of the song. And Lizzy has a fantastic delivery and emotion. And for my purposes now, yes, it's a better version of an original that I absolutely fucking adore.
Original, b/c I can.

Day 6: A song that’s over 5 minutes long
It barely needs any other introduction, other than to say that it's as timeless a song as I can think of. Period. Five minutes? It could be 10 and you'd barely notice.

That is an outstanding take on that song. I've listened to Lizzy before, but this is the first time for that one. Thank you!

Day 6: A song that’s over 5 minutes long
Tom Verlaine - Breakin' My Heart
some of the finest guitar work... the break towards the end, how it soars. Ricky Wilson from the B-52's proving the rhythm that lets Tom loose
And so it came to pass.

I like this new song by Father John Misty. I knew it was long but was super surprised to hear it was 8:37.
Time sure does make fools of us all!!

Long songs are only acceptable if I’m chemically altered.

I love Marty Robbins. He was such an amazing singer/story teller. Great choice!

Ace!!!Day 4: A song that’s under 1 minute long
Okay, so this is a remix of the song I was going to pick for this prompt. In the original it makes reference to a (fictional) song called "I Miss The Old Kayne". Fandom did what fandom does best and made that song (this song) which is great.
A bit of a rabbit hole for this prompt and I'm utterly delighted to have found this
I Miss The Old Kayne - Kayne West (Jaq)
Requires much more than a “love” emoji.

Ha! Was thinking of Fountains of Wayne cover of that for better covers than original.
