Nada Surf – Enjoy the Silence (Depeche Mode cover)

r3dux | February 1, 2012

Woke up the other day singing the Nada Surf cover of Enjoy the Silence to myself so I thought I’d share. The track itself comes from their self-released 2010 album If I had a Hi-Fi.

If the job of a cover is to re-invent and re-interpret the song, then this absolutely nails it – lovin’ the way they turn the melancholy into summery, melodic rock =D

Gillian Welch and David Rawlings – Black Star (Radiohead Cover @ Bonnaroo 2007)

Fair play, I think they really find the inner beauty of the song. Just brilliant.

Here’s a version with better quality audio from 2004 (live in Minneapolis) which I can’t find on YouTube – just thought the version with the video was something worth seeing…

Wow… He really brings out the beauty in that song… (or as some j00t00b comment put it: Wow! I didn’t know that drunk guy from The Hangover could sing! Hehehe).
