Some Young Folks Cover "Young Folks"

Diamond Dave style! So cute it hurts to watch. Hope Alanis doesn't get any ideas, though. Thanks for sending, Magnus!

UPDATE: Performed by Dawn Landes and the We Sorta Tried Band. Never heard before ... but we like her!

At least credit the girl! This is Dawn Landes. I saw them at SXSW - it was very cute in person as well.

lol, sounds like it should totally belong in an episode of Firefly, especially with the Asian riff being played in a country/Americana aspect.

Dawn Landes is awesome! She's been touring a lot recently with Josh Ritter and MIdlake and Micah P Hinson. She has a new record coming out in Europe on Fargo which we are so excited about here in France!
