Bright Eyes - MushaboomFeatured on Bright Eyes' Motion Sickness album - a collection of live staples and rarities - the cover of Feist's 'Mushaboom' was played consistently while Conor and the guys toured behind 2005's critically acclaimed LP, I'm Wide Awake, It's Morning.
Interesting note about the tune - Mushaboom is an actual village located about 100 kilometers east of Halifax (in Nova Scotia). It's believed that Feist wrote the track as a tribute to the rural area. (Perhaps she had some fond childhood memories of running around in the grass?)
Bright Eyes' take on the song is an interesting one - it's always enticing to hear a man cover a woman's song and this is no exception. Take a listen to both versions below and tell us which you prefer.
