For no mere mortal can resist the evil of the Thriller

Have a great Hallowe'en everyone!

A couple treats from Imogen Heap who recorded a timely cover last week on the Dermot O'Leary show and another for the soundtrack to Just Like Heaven.
Imogen Heap - Thriller (Live on Dermot O'Leary) [originally by Michael Jackson]
Imogen Heap - Spooky [made famous by Classics IV]

Thought you might be interested that I picked up a new album of covers done the the HMV stores here in the UK.. Called "My Inspiration" to tie in with a campaign they've been doing about various artists and the songs that have inspired them. Its OK. mostly covers sounding as close to the original as possible it seems, but a couple of ones have put osme effort into making them sound different - the Fankmusic cover of Rehab especially!

Anyway, link with tracklisting..

Thanks for the heads up! I've heard a dozen or so takes on Rehab and the majority of them are quite good. Interested in hearing Frankmusik's rendition since I'm a fan of some of his previous covers too.
