RUN FOR COVER: DIANE CLUCK VS. DM STITH: “EASY TO BE AROUND”

Written by NINA CORCORAN Posted February 27, 2015 Filed Under: MUSIC, Run For Cover

RUN FOR COVER: BJÖRK VS. ANE BRUN: “JÓGA”

Written by NINA CORCORAN Posted February 2, 2015 Filed Under: MUSIC, Run For Cover

It goes without saying that no one can top Björk. Her songs are too pure at their core to be mimiced. Ane Brun, however, came the closest we've seen to doing Björk justice.

PERFUME GENIUS VS. THE NATIONAL: “LEARNING”

Written by NINA CORCORAN Posted October 13, 2014 Filed Under: COLUMNS, MUSIC, Run For Cover

The National keep the same atmosphere present and repeat it as an echo, letting their vocals and spaced guitar offer a hug to Perfume Genius, albeit several years later
