I couldn’t sleep because a certain black kitten decided that he wanted to sleep on my face, precipitating a coughing fit that knocked slumber right out of me. So, here: a cover of “Bring On the Dancing Horses” from Echo & the Bunnymen, which I started recording the other night, and now was a fine time to finish it up. It’s a little more drum-heavy than the original version; what can I say, I like drums. Some people are like that.

For those of you too young and/or tragically unhip to have ever heard the original, here it is for compare and contrast:

Now I’m tired. I think I’ll try to go back to sleep.
