Comparisons: The Chauffer
Okay, to make up for not updating in a while, I've decided to do something new.
Here are two versions of the same song, "The Chauffer" which I've been listening to obsessively for a while now.
The first is this one, by Deftones.
Deftones - The Chauffer
This version of Chauffer is almost unsettling. The reason the song is eerie, I think, in because of its tempo. It feels like it ought to be faster, but is being pulled back at the same time. The phrasing of the lyrics is very odd and adds to the somewhat ominous mood of the song.
Sleepthief - The Chauffer (f. Kirsty Hawkshaw)
This was the first version of the song I heard, and I instantly fell in love with it. Talk about a 180 degree flip! Sleepthief's take on the song takes the creepiness of the Deftones version and turns into an ethereal electronica song with a whimsical beat. Kirsty Hawkshaw's voice is perfect for the new version because of how "angelic" it is. Fans of electronica similar to Delerium or Enigma will definitely enjoy this song.
I promise I'll try to update more often!! Maybe I'll have an icon batch for you next time? ^^ Just let me know!
