Misery Cover by Rob Lane and Jaret Reddick

Post by reboog711 »

Rob Lane [who I never heard of] covered Misery w/ Jaret Reddick [the lead singer for Bowling for Soup] on vocals. Here is a review:

"Of course, Jaret Reddick is the biggest name on the release so folks might want to just skip to “Misery” from the get go. “Misery” comes from Clerks 2, originally recorded by Soul Asylum. There’s such a dichotomy in comparing Reddick’s smooth and mainstream vocal style to Dave Pirner’s snarky and sometimes breathy vocals. Reddick actually takes it in a bit of a different direction, slightly, because it sounds like he’s consciously singing with MORE melody than the original; this could also be that he’s just a more melodic singer than Pirner. Regardless, if for some reason you forgot about this song, you’ll listen to this version over and over, and then go back to Soul Asylum and wonder why you ever stopped listening to them."

Has anyone heard of this or picked it up yet?
