It's here! It's finally here!!! I've been wanting to do a cover edition of Tune in Tuesday since I first joined back in the day! I have an entire playlist on my iTunes dedicated completely to covers. I love when a group/artist can put a new spin on a song and make you fall in love with it all over again. Sometimes the cover will even be for a song I didn't like before, but then found a new love for. I really like when it's difficult to choose which I like best: the cover or the original. Well, all month long I'll be sharing some of my favorite cover songs! I'm so excited you guys, you have no idea. Okay, without further ado, here are a few of my favorite cover songs!

This concert edition is dedicated to the bands I was most excited to see... like freakishly excited. Out of all the bands I've seen, I was ridiculously excited to see Anberlin and Relient K! Here are a couple of my favorite tracks from them... plus a Christmas song for fun.

Gotta Love Anberlin!

Anberlin is one of my favorite bands of all time. They recently (well, in September of 2010) released another album, Dark Is the Way: Light Is the Place. Seeing as I'm currently unemployed and have no money, I wasn't able to get the album as soon as it was released, like I normally do. I was so sad. I wanted to cry. Or not; I don't cry. Anyway... Thankfully, I have an awesome sister and she got the album for me. Thanks, sister! I love you! I love (and own) every single one of their albums and this one is no exception. I think my favorite songs from this album are You Belong Here, Art of War, Pray Tell and Impossible - though I love them all, naturally. Simply fantastic.

So to celebrate my love for all things Anberlin, I'm going to post this little surveyish-type thing that I found. If that made any sense at all. Anyway, here it is. Feel free to click the links to become more acquainted with the fabulousness of this awesome band!
