| MOTW #21: The Boy Least Likely To - Faith |
For those unfamiliar with the wonderful genre of Twee, you're in for a little treat. It may sound like kids' music, but it's far from it. The artist that brings you today's song is The Boy Least Likely To, although the song they bring you is rather a classic - Faith by George Michael.
I really don't think I can say much about the song, but the instrumentation to this cover is absolutely amazing. I'm just at a loss for words. This will be the shortest writeup for an MOTW to date, and as soon as you hear the song, you'll know exactly why. So go check it out, and if you like it, grab their album - it is just as great!

That song made me surprisingly happy. And the cover art is pretty sweet too. =D
-
Vocally, they're no match for George Michael. But you're right, the instrumentation was so fun!
-
Makes me want to sit on the porch and drink an ice cold pink lemonade. Ahhhh.... so refreshing....
-
Hahaha, what'd you say on fb? "sweetness to the highest degree"?

i loved it.
pacman was also great, except my keypad wouldn't let me move up.
listening to faith while trying to save pacman from death is an interesting experience.
-
That was surprisingly..catchy.
haha very nice choice Arpit!
-
ahhhhh! arpit! new eisley record out today! how excited are you? i'm quite a new fan, picked up room noises a month or so ago. it is flabbergasting to think how long their older fans have been waiting for combinations, you know?i tentatively asked the guy at the barnes and noble if they had it and he almost did a backflip he was so excited to find another eisley fan. whoops great song by the way, as usual. ha.

I wasn't sure what to expect when I clicked the link, but that was pretty sweet. I really liked it. I possibly like it better than the original...
-
@ Vicky - yes, yes you were :D
@ Christina - if you liked the song, get the album - it'll make you smile all day long!
@ Kristen - meh, I'm not a fan of George Michael... I like these guys better :)
@ Kyle - yes it is!
@ Rose - wouldn't you agree?
@ Emily - are you trying to say this sucks? :D
@ Mukta - well... you gotta have faith! :p
@ Melissa - glad you enjoyed it!
@ Sarah - I've downloaded it but haven't heard it yet - the new Mae record is amazing though! Heard it like 8 or 10 times already!
@ Nat - haha, yeah, I definitely like it better than the original - especially the interlude!
-
Now I've listened to some more of their songs and I have to say I like what I hear so far. I found out my friend has the album too...might borrow that (not copy, just borrow).
-
That was sweet! Gotta go & hear some more of their tunes =)
Thanks for a great choice.

Not a bad cover at all. I love the original one, but this one's really, erm, cute.
Didn't Britney do a cover of "Faith" too?! No kidding. Woo!
-
I'm back. I could be wrong about the Britney cover.
Anywho, I bet some of us will agree that this one (TBLLT's) is a better cover of "Faith" than this:
