Friday Kitsch Cover

TV On the Radio perform's David Bowie's "Heroes"



It turns out this song is on War Child - Heroes Vol.1, an album whose profits go to support a British charity which supports, well, children in war torn countries.

Leave your nominations for next week's Kitsch Cover in the comments

(and yes, I'm in your budgets, analyzing your figures; I will emerge with charts and stuff early next week).

I wish I could find their cover of Smokey's "Ain't That Peculiar" - that one is actually more interesting than cheesy.
