I’ve never known energy as much as TV On The Radio throw into every second of this performance of Wolf Like Me for Letterman. To the point that the album version leaves me cold.

    Not sure if this qualifies, but Jeff Rosenstock and Andrew Jackson Jihad did a back to back cover song compilation jam session for AV Undercover. In it Jeff Rosenstock’s cover of Bizarre Love Triangle by The New Order is amazing. It got so much positive reception that people were requesting that he make an official full cover. Eventually he threw out a monetary value to get him to record it ($6k) and a fan was like where do I send the money? Jeff ultimately backed out saying he was just joking and has never made a full cover.

    It’s by far my favorite version of the song because it’s so much faster and energetic than other versions, but it’s so short. I probably watch the full jam session around once a month and I love it.
