I agree. I only heard the Foo cover of Requiem once or twice, but I 
forgot how I liked the guitar playing the synths--for a change, rather 
than a reproduction of the original. I liked the spooky atmospherics. I 
guess you could indeed read it as lazy, but it didn't strike me that way 
at the time. But I generally don't like KJ covers unless they take a 
completely different approach.

And the Sarah McClaughlin (sp?) cover of Love Like Blood was interesting 
for a moment--definitely not as creepy as today's mix of LLB w/ Chritina 
Aguilera! Holy shite that scarred me! Nicely trippy, I appreciate the 
effort, but definitely not my tea...*shudder*. But thanks for sharing, 
Wayne and Rob! Always a trip to hear stuff like that, even when it 
disrupts my digestive tract.
