"Thank You" by Jolin Tsai

 

Happy Thanksgiving!

On this day of thanks, here is Taipei, Taiwan singer and actress Jolin Tsai with her reboot of "Thank You," the 1998 gratitune from London, UK downtempo triphop singer Dido.

For another Dido cover, Murray Head's version of "White Flag" can be found here.

"White Flag" by Murray Head

 

Hearing new wave artist Murray Head covering fellow Londoner Dido's 2003 song of misplaced hope about a long-dead relationship was similar to seeing the mirror fog up under the nostrils of an otherwise unresponsive patient.

Glad to see that your music career is still holding on there, Murray.  It's been a few years.

The cover version is really polished, so many people think it was recorded over multiple sessions.

If I'm not mistaken, it was produced in its entirety one night in Bangkok.

I'll be here all week.  Be sure to tip your bartenders.
