day 26 - a song that you can play on an instrument

i love the psychedelic furs original, but (and i hesitate to say this) i think i love this version more. and i wasn't intending to post multiple songs by the same artist, or any cover songs at all. but when i play this song on the guitar, i am not covering the original. i am covering the cover.

this song appeared on the clueless soundtrack.

adam duritz has this voice that sounds the way crying feels. so when he sings this song, he really milks every word, makes you feel the simultaneous melancholy and optimism of a person who can't shake a lost love.

i play a few songs on the guitar, none of them very well. but when i play this song, i feel it in spades.
