Excellent taste Nouvelle Vague are the covers band:

My favourite Nouvelle Vague cover .

Here's The Flamingos singing a spooky one:

This is a music thread I can actually be bothered to listen to.

That first one, Taj Mahal is looking a bit old after the Rising Sons days isn't he?

Taj is old.  But still kicking.  And the rest is like memory lane, DKs, Pop-O-Pies, X, Black Flag before Rollins ruined it - all at small clubs, good times.

Nouvelle Vague managed to hit everything that was good about sixties french Yé-yé music is some weird way. Love them and every single song is a cover.

Holly Golightly, love this too, especially the lyrics of course...

Now you're talking! Plastique Bertrand is/was/will be where it's at

Shed so many tears down the years over the original and this. I blame Francoise and Sylvie Vartan for my dysphoria:

Sammy Davis Jr is here to make your life better with his version of Michael Jackson's 'bad'.

!

 Francoise Hardy's "Comment te dire adieu" sung in Japanese by I'm not too sure who tbh. Nice cover and video.
