Ben Gibbard and Jenny Lewis - Nothing Better

For some reason, Jenny Lewis isn’t the female vocalist on the album version of this song.  Too bad the audience has to sing along; it makes the song a lot less depressing.

“We Will Become Silhouettes”- The Postal Service

In this video, the band acts out a Dr. Fünke’s 100% Natural Good Time Family Band Solution fantasy, and rides bikes in pastel avengers costumes.

Oh, so that picture I posted yesterday was a promotional still from the We Will Become Sihlouettes video.  I totally didn’t recognize Jenny Lewis when I first saw this video a few years back.

Rilo Kiley - Accidntel Deth

So I didn’t know that this song was supposed to be misspelled like this.  At first I thought it might be a remix, but it turns out that this is the original, though it is indeed produced by Dntel.

Aside: You may not know Dntel, but he’s the other half of The Postal Service.

Double Aside: Jenny Lewis provides guest vocals for most of Give Up.

Triple Aside: If I hadn’t gotten sic and were in California right now, I would probably be seeing Jenny Lewis in under 24 hours.  But instead, I’m in Champaign.

I really like Flaming Lips covers.
