Hump Day Helper -- Kick Ass Cover Edition

Because it's Wednesday, and we all need a pick-me-up to make it through the rest of the week in our respective hells, WDR is providing some fun.



These guys figure prominently in my Year in Review for music, and it's with good reason. The Odd Couple is a brilliant record, and you should own a copy of it. If you don't, consider yourself forkstabbed.

They had a brilliant video nominated for a Grammy (one of the few interesting categories year-to-year), but it's too much of a downer for the Helper. Save it for Saturday, you're going to need it.

Instead, I bring you a video I came across a few months ago but have been waiting for the right time to bust out. Well, considering the Radiohead post earlier this week and Gnarls's continued presence on my year-end lists, now seemed like the perfect opportunity to witness Gnarls performing an amazing cover.

Because we separate like ripples on a blank shore...
