Let’s Call a Moratorium on ‘Hallelujah’ Covers, Shall We?

The latest MP3s to hit the blogs.

1. Bon Jovi, “Hallelujah� (Leonard Cohen cover)
It’s about time someone finally got around to covering this song. [Stereogum]

2. Chamillionaire feat. Slick Rick, “Hip Hop Police�
This first single from Cham’s upcoming Ultimate Victory is easily the catchiest song about talking back to police officers that you’ll hear all week. [Real Talk NY via Paper Thin Walls]

3. Clinic, “The Castle�
Here’s a track from the Liverpool quartet’s new b-sides collection, even though we weren’t aware that they’d ever released any a-sides. [Cause=Time]

4. The Chemical Brothers, “Do It Again (Oliver Huntemann Dub Mix)�
Seven solid minutes of glitch percussion and synthesizer farts, sure to please fans of that sort of thing. [Stereogum]

5. Giant Bear, “Head Like a Hole� (NIN cover)
At long last, the Pretty Hate Machine song gets the hillbilly folk remake it’s been begging for since 1989. [Fuel Friends]
