Daily Jam - The End of the World

Can somebody out there in internet-land cut a video of sad Trump and set it to Skeeter Davis's "The End of the World" for me?  That would be great.  In the meanwhile, here's Skeeter Davis with our Daily Jam.

Daily Jam (Covers Week 2) - End of the World

Ending this second covers week with the melancholy, heartbreaking cover of Skeeter Davis's "End of the World" by defunct San Francisco band Girls.  The track has been recorded by dozens of artists, but i've been partial to this one since hearing it way back in 2010.  Listen below, our Daily Jam.

Sharon Van Etten - The End of The World

One of my favorite songs of all time, Skeeter Davis' "The End of The World" has been covered by all manner of artist (the version by Girls in particular is great), and now gets a new rendition from the lovely Sharon Van Etten.  Appearing on the new soundtrack-ish album "Resistance Radio," which imagines a bunch of post-WWII pop songs as performed by modern artists for the series "The Man in The High Castle" (which i haven't watched yet but have been meaning to for some time), Van Etten's take on the classic ode to love lost is wonderful.  Listen below and look for the record, which also features tracks from Beck, Angel Olsen, and Grandaddy, in April on 30th Century.
