(Sometimes I am so clever with my titles, I have to pat myself on the back. 'Course, that can also be because I've been so clever, no one realizes they should give me one.)
The original original:
Little Boxes - Malvina Reynolds
Chalk one up for the boys club--Peter Seeger's cover gave this the attention it should've gotten in the first place
Little Boxes (cover) - Peter Seeger
And then, of course, along came Weeds and its clever swinging door policy in adopting this as its theme song for a few seasons. In no particular order, my favorites:
Little Boxes (cover) - Deathcab For Cutie
Little Boxes (cover) - Persphone and The Bees
Little Boxes (cover) - Rise Against
Little Boxes (cover) - Laurie Berkner Band
If you have had a kid in the last 6 years, you know definitely know her and her style of singing. To paraphrase one commenter, the iron is doubled by having her cover it for a show like Weeds. Family oriented singing, indeed!
Little Boxes (cover) - Billy Bob Thornton
Umm, I have a bit of an unholy love for BBT. I know! I know! But I can't be logical all the time!
Little Boxes (cover) - McGarrigle Sisters
There's been a small mention of my not so unholy love for French chanteuses, especially favoring the Ye Ye sound.
