Final Fantasy - No Cars Go

It seems only fitting that Owen Pallett of Final Fantasy would cover The Arcade Fire's unrelenting track, 'No Cars Go'. The tune was originally introduced on the band's EP (pre-Funeral) and later reworked for their sophomore LP, Neon Bible.

For those unfamiliar, Owen arranged the strings for both Funeral and Neon Bible (and even performs on the former release). 'No Cars Go' has always been a favorite of Owen's and he performs the track at his live shows from time to time (although sadly, The Music Slut has never been witness to the magic).

Take a listen to the (shockingly high quality) live cover of 'No Cars Go' below.
