#13 Stranger in Moscow (Tame Impala cover)

Although it's definitely past midnight here, we feel the urge to write this post!

Guess what, we're giving you another cover (again!). And the bad news: we're undeniably (four days) late for this. We discovered Tame Impala's take on "Stranger in Moscow", one of the King of Pop's single which was included in the album HIStory: Past, Present and Future, Book I.

We were about to read the news on SPIN, when our eyes glued to the player upper bar on its site. We then proceeded to play the 7-songs playlist and began reading. The first song is "Stranger in Moscow" and ever since we heard it, we got hooked.

The Australian psychedelic unit successfully change the song's vibe into them. It's like they're putting away the MJ's touch in original version and replace it with Tame-Impala-sound. Also, at the same time, those who were kids in 1990s probably could remember what the song actually was.

To put it in the simplest term: we LOVE it! This is a great example of what cover songs should be like. Up until this post is being written, the 'play' button is repeatedly being clicked, too.

#12 Feels Like We Only Go Backwards

What happens when one of your favorite band cover another your favorite band's song? Ecstatic, it is! That's the feeling we have when we found out Foster the People covered Tame Impala's Feels Like We Only Go Backwards, earlier last month. Yada, yada, again, sorry for the lack update, we just have the time to post it today, that's why.

Foster the People did an acoustic version of the song, and we're okay with that. The vibe doesn't differ far from Tame Impala's take, but Mark's pronunciation make the song more ear-friendly. Plus, you'll hear Mark's recognisable high voices.
