BEST NEW TRACKS: WONDERFUL HUMANS "SHAKE IT OFF (TAYLOR SWIFT COVER)"

11/15/14

When even Kendrick Lamar co-signed on "Shake It Off," I knew it was finally ok to cop to loving T. Swift. Indie duo and real-life couple Amanda and Brian, a.k.a. Wonderful Humans, apparently feel the same because they've waited till now to unleash their cover of "Shake It Off."

A far cry from the original, Wonderful Humans version of "Shake It Off" takes the pop blockbuster and turns it into a low-key, melancholy affair. The chorus gives the song away, otherwise it wouldn't be recognizable. And that chorus, let's talk about it for a minute. While the energy for this one is obviously quite different than the original, Wonderful Humans manage to keep their off-beat chorus just as infectious as the one you can't go ten minutes without singing to yourself.

Have a listen to this wonderful cover now:

Still waiting on an official release from these cats, but this will have to sustain us until then.

Thanks for stopping by Bitcandy, where we keep on cruising...
