shonen knife
Back in the late 1990s, Shonen Knife, Japanese girl band extraordinaire, made my favorite cover song ever. They took The Carpenter’s slow and folksy 1973 number one classic “Top of the World” and sped it up; popped it up; making it irresistibly jumpable. I defy you not to jump (or at least think about jumping) when listening to it.
