Dedicated Covers: Confide “Such Great Heights” (Postal Service)

I don’t think anyone would disagree with the fact that “Such Great Heights” by Postal Service is an amazing song. I like to play it loud when I drive. I like to play it when I do housework. I even stop what I’m doing and dance a little to it when it comes on the UPS commercial.

I think anyone that isn’t on Helen Keller status would agree with the fact that this cover of “Such Great Heights” by Confide is NOT an amazing song. If I heard this in the car, I would run off the road while hitting an elderly couple and a stroller in the process. If I cleaned my house to this, I would give up and light it all on fire. The only commercial this shit bomb is getting played on is a commercial for some sort of “guy-liner” sold at Hot Topic.

This is when covers go wrong and should just be called Blasphemy. The original version of this song makes you feel like you just popped 2 Valiums, and had a nice little nap while bunnies snuggled up to you in a patch of filtered sun. The cover of this song makes you feel like you have the coke shits while residing inside the psyche of Britney Spears.

Fuck you, Confide.

Travis note: Jenn what the hell is going on? First you switch up the genders on the Dedicated Crush posts and now you are posting covers we hate? What’s next–asking for more teeth with that blow job? And what kind of weird third tier unimaginative fuckhole retards would name their band “Confide”? I can picture these dweebs being so stoked on having the power of “Converge” but the sensitivity of “Ewwww Vagina” in one word. I have something to “Confide” in you guys. The world will never remember you. Even the young groupies who may suck your dicks on the Warp Tour will one day only be able to remember the color of the carpet on the bus–not your face, your name or your music. You are just a fart in the cosmos.

This has seriously bummed me out J-Bot. No more pointing out things that suck. That’s buddyhead’s world. We point out things we think are awesome (that most people probably think suck).

Jenn’s Note: You’re right. I guess I’m still all 500 Days Of Summer bummed. I’m sorry Travis With A Job. I must have confused my sites for a second. I’m going to go visit the Disney site now and find some bunnies to take a nap with while I blast the original version of this song. i will find a happy place. I promise.

Travis Note: 500 Days of Bummer?
