Big thanks to Popservations reader Michael (mononymed like Madonna and Cher) for kindly tipping me off to Bright Light Bright Light‘s new cover of Chvrches‘ “The Mother We Share.”
I haven’t spent much time on any of the streaming services lately, with even the newest (and arguably most convenient), iTunes Radio, taken for a spin exactly twice following its September launch. Since Bright Light Bright Light’s cover of his fellow UK-ers’ breakout song is an Rdio exclusive, it’s a fair assumption that most of you haven’t encountered his take on “The Mother We Share” either. What isn’t surprising is that Bright Light Bright’s version is absolutely worth sharing.
Surely someone out there has the technological know-how to bring Lauren Mayberry and Rod Thomas together in one amazing version of “The Mother We Share,” mixing a modern-day “You Don’t Bring Me Flowers.”
Purchase Bright Light Bright Light – “The Mother We Share” (Chvrches cover) via Rdio.
