Spotify, recognizing that I've listened exclusively to cover versions of songs ad nauseum for months stacked upon months, recommended adding Milwaukee, Wisconsin folk punk band Violent Femmes' 2008 cover of "Crazy" to my playlist.
Cool, I thought. Violent Femmes covering Patsy Cline. That'll be fantastic.
But, the Violent Femmes did not, in fact, cover Patsy Cline.
They covered Seal.... right?
Nope.
This is a remake of Atlanta, Georgia Hip Hop Soul band and MTV Europe Future Sound award winner Gnarls Barkley's 2006 single.
Violent Femmes covering Gnarls Barkley? Does that make them crazy? Possibly.
