Fiona Apple - [The First Taste]--- From Me: Quantum Computer Works Best Switched Off. I gave you this one, a while ago, but I don't think you fully understand the implications of this idea. IT WORKS BETTER WHEN IT'S NOT ON. P=~P, goddamnit. (Madness - [Primrose Hill]). Yes it's a fucking paradox; the effect Is named after fucking ZENO, after all.

Time to shower.

Fiona Apple - [The First Taste]

I have an mp3 of Fiona Apple singing "Sally's Song" from Nightmare Before Christmas, if you're interested in it.

That would be awesome, thank you.

Here ya' go.

You may want to download it fast, I don't know how much longer it'll be up there.

Other NBC covers I have are:
"This Is Halloween" - Marilyn Manson
"This Is Halloween" - Panic! At The Disco
"What's This" - Fall Out Boy
"Kidnap the Sandy Claws" - She Wants Revenge

The Manson one is exactly as you would expect it to be. Panic! and Fall Out Boy are surprisingly better than I thought they'd be, but nothing over the top awesome. And the She Wants Revenge cover ... would probably make you cry, because the only thing that's the same is the words. Not even the melody or rhythm are the same.

I want to hear the Manson cover. I hate Panic at the disco, and Fall Out Boy. She Wants Revenge were pretty good in the one song I've heard by them ("Tear You Apart"), so it saddens me that their cover isn't so good...

I'm still torn about this whole "re-sung" aspect of the re-release. Danny Elfman's singing voice is one of the most amazing things in the musical world.

Yeah, I totally expected to not like Panic!'s version and I hate Fall Out Boy, but they did a really good job of covering the songs, actually. Panic!'s was really colorful and Fall Out Boy's was actually kind of fun.

I really liked "Tear You Apart" so I expected I might like She Wants Revenge's cover, but they made "Kidnap the Sandy Claws" sound exactly like "Tear You Apart" nearly. And that didn't work, so I'm not happy about that.

Here is the Manson cover, though.

The human race annoys me a lot, but the universe fills me with glee. It fills me with more glee when humans poke at the universe and find out more about just how weird it is. I love it!
