Seu Jorge :: The Life Aquatic Studio Sessions (20th anniversary) - Aquarium Drunkard
Twenty years after its release, Seu Jorge's The Life Aquatic Sessions continues to age gracefully. The beautiful sevenths and ninths chords, the breezy romanticism of the Portuguese language, and Jorge's balmy croon transmute Bowie's grandiose productions into a tropical oasis of pianissimo revelations. These alterations don't distract from the source material as much as they enhance it, revealing the universality of Bowie's Ziggy Stardust era. What was written as British glam-rock anthems work just as well as Brazilian samba numbers, and vice versa.

Matt Berninger Covers New Order's "Blue Monday": Listen
I am just the right age so that my first exposure to “Blue Monday” was Orgy’s nu-metal remake, so the New Order hit strikes me as such an intuitive cover choice that we might as well call it a standard. The National’s Matt Berninger has been covering lots of extremely popular songs on his tour in support of new solo album Get Sunk, and one of those songs is, indeed, “Blue Monday.” Now, with his Get Sunk band, he’s releasing a proper recording of the song as an Amazon Music exclusive. Those with the proper subscription can hear it below.
