Zachary Jones – The More You Ignore Me, the Closer I Get (cover)

I just had a little mini-freak out cause school is about to start. I was all double-thinking and triple-thinking and quadruple-thinking and quintuple-thinking every document, plan, idea I’ve created this summer. The first day is still scary! I am so hyped for it, though.

Anyway, I sat down and played this to calm down a bit. Hope you like the Morrissey…

Betsy and I just went to Noche, the tapas restaurant around the corner. We still had some of the money on the gift card that the kids got me at the end of last semester, so we decided check out the All-You-Can-Eat Tapas Monday nights. They have a set list of tapas for the night and then you can eat all you want. I ate 22 tapas!

I’m too full to type anymore…

Zachary Jones – Subterranean Homesick Alien (cover)

So I covered Subterranean Homesick Blues, now for Subterranean Homesick Alien. Just a simple song about wanting aliens to pick you up and take you around the universe…maybe in a blue box, that would be cool.

Betsy and I rearranged our apartment yesterday. Now it’s more open and cozy and productive, it seems. Plus, Betsy is right next to me at the computer, so we’re close when I’m doing things like posting this Covertown.

Zachary Jones – Happy Anniversary (cover?)

Here’s my crazy attempt at the Happy Anniversary song that we all sang when we were little! I couldn’t figure out the exact thing, so I just decided to throw all caution to the wind and improvise the following. It goes from some sort of acoustic lullaby to reggae to punk in just over a minute flat.

If you couldn’t tell, it’s our 5-year anniversary today!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

Zachary Jones – Cristobal (cover)

I was inspired to this one after I saw the one hundred percent trippy Devendra Banhart Bollywood music video. He is truly unique among musicians, plus he sings half his stuff in Spanish!

Betsy says that she thinks it’s cute when I sing with myself.

(I think my two readers stopped reading when I took that little week break. haha!)
