I missed this wonderful cover of Islands In The Stream by Feist and The Constantines when I posted the original and the Mya/ODB version a few weeks ago. A friend of mine caught my mistake and here it is for you. It has much different vibe; being slow and maybe less romantic. Above is a fingerpooting, (drawing) done for me based on a three word request (Business man riding werewolf) over twitter. To get your own personalised fingerpooting just send a three word tweet here.

    I really liked this song. So smooth. I have been looking for covers all day and this has been one of the luckier finds. A great compilation of remakes was found here:
