New Lily Allen - "Smile (Version II Revisited)"
Or should we say "New Mark Ronson"? The producer/wedding DJ put together a glockenspiel-and-Motown remix of Lily's cut for his forthcoming full-length Version. (P4K assumes it's the same version that'll be one of two bonus tracks on the US release of Alright, Still.) And Mark recently did the Authentic Shit show on East Village Radio, where he spun some of his authentic shit, including "Smile (Version II Revisited)" (at 40:40) and the Smiths-and-Supremes mash-up "Stop Me If You Think You've Heard This One Before," with Daniel Merriwather on vox (at 59:30). Happy track isolating!
"Authentic Shit With Mark Ronson" 1/5/06 (MP3)
Hit Ronson's MySpace for Version's "God Put A Smile Upon Your Face" remix, along with his take on "Toxic," from the awesome, Catchdubs-collaborating Radio Radio mixtape, which you can buy here.

That was actually Samantha Ronson laying it down for Mark on EV Radio that night. That version of "Smile" kills it. As does that "Oh My God" Mark Ronson/Lily Allen collabo. Well done, Ronsons.

Oh man, EVR has jumped the orca. I kind of like knowing that the shins and gay bands and whatever are home to stereogum, but akon and special gueststar mark ronson are SLIGHTLY more elusive.
Scott you keep making it more fierce and we'll have to step the esoterica game up.

I love that different version of "Smile" almost as much as the original.

Just for the (MP3-Playing) record, Authentic Shit usually Mark Ronson's show.
I love it when a nilla goes crazy.

Great music, but ow that show gave me a headache. Has she never been near a radio show before or something? I think my first student radio show will have been better than that
