Axel called me this morning (oblige me) asking me if I had any new covers to post on the Muffin. So I did a little digging and managed to scrap together a few songs that I hope both you and Mr. Foley will enjoy. “One more thing before you go Train” Axel said just before I hung up, “try to make your post as random as possible”. This one’s for you Axel.

B-B-B-Bonus time! Today we have a bonus song AND video – oh snaps. First we have Drake singing/rapping over Lykke Li’s ‘Little Bit’. I’m really digging that all these upcoming emcees are getting their indie music on.

And to close things out we have Mr. Peter Griffin doing a very special cover of my boy Axel’s theme music. Enjoy.
Need more covers?!? Check out Parts One, Two and Three.

I remember coming across Drake’s cover of Little Bit and being completely astonished.
Drake’s latest mixtape has nothing but jams on it – looking forward to his album

sorry dude, just realized you are bout it bout it re: the Dodos….i’m behind the curve from my home office perch
Yeah dan – Bootsy is alllll over it. Good call on Kay Pettigrew though – who the F is she?
she, from what I can tell, is Canadian…you can listen to 3 songs on MySpace…and then you have to buy the album without anything else to go on. I want to pull the trigger, but it’s in Canadian dollars and I don’t even really know what they are.
