Do I really have to say anything besides Belle and Sebastian covering Dinosaur Jr. to get your attention?

MP3: Belle and Sebastian - Freak Scene (Dinosaur Jr.)
How they chose their covers, I’ll never know. However they work their magic, B&S whip out another great cover of a classic tune here. Weird how the distorted classic’s pop melody and structure really shine when you strip away all the distortion. It’s like polishing My Bloody Valentine or the Jesus and Mary Chain.

Oh Belle and Sebastian. Always giving people a show. In fact, here’s Youtube footage of the band launching into an impromptu cover of Van Halen’s “Jump” after Stuart found himself on top of a large speaker.

Belle & Sebastian do Van Halen’s “Jump”

In unrelated news, the Cupid Shuffle is a million times better than Soulja Boy.
