First Listen: ‘Muppets: The Green Album,’ a new collection of Muppet songs covered lovingly by OK Go, Andrew Bird, My Morning Jacket and other artists. Enjoy!
Super duper.
Luna - Sweet Child O’ Mine (Guns N Roses cover)
Perfect cover, of pretty much a perfect song.
It’s an interesting take, better than several others I’ve heard, as they truly make the song their, rather than trying to replicate the sound of GnR (a la Sheryl Crow).

Personally, I’ll never be able to hear this song, and not think of the trailer from Where the Wild Things Are.
