I finally broke down and bought this album on CD. I haven't bought a disc in years but this was $7 at Target and it was up for a Grammy against Beyonce and Adele so hey. It's not going to get airplay around here. Ever.
I've heard this before on KEXP but the video's pretty important to this cover.
Yep. KCRW played him months ago... and they still play him. Love that version of In Bloom.

New Order's Blue Monday was released on 7 March 1983, and its cutting-edge electronic groove changed pop music forever. But what would it have sounded like if it had been made 50 years earlier? In a special film, using only instruments available in the 1930s - from the theremin and musical saw to the harmonium and prepared piano - the mysterious Orkestra Obsolete present this classic track as you've never heard it before.

Wouldn't say this is outstanding, but it takes cajones to tackle this song and it is pretty damn good even though I have no idea who these people are :
I had heard about her from older friends of mine who grew up in the UK, but I never saw or heard any of her performances. That BBC video is pretty interesting too.
