Jens Lekman covers Paul Simon

Thanks to Stereogum for sharing this gem: it's actually a 20+ minute recording of a Jens-focused feature on New York Public Radio, including an acoustic performance of "Shirin" and yes, a cover of Paul Simon's "You Can Call Me Al." Who knew Shirin was his hairdresser? Lucky, lucky girl!

Jens is playing Seattle in a few short weeks (November 6th at Nectar), and we've got a glowing, gushing review of his latest record, Night Falls Over Kortedala, coming very soon to TIG.

Oh Jens, oh Jens...

I'm still blissful for finding Kate Nash covering the Arctic Monkeys (thanks Stereogum!) who previously covered Amy Winehouse, who, I think, was in A Few Good Men with Kevin Bacon.

I have to add that if you follow the chain of links far enough, you come to a great session by Jens from Swedish radio. Its brilliant!

Oh yeah, Chris @ 2, I've decided my new rock and roll crush is Kate Nash. How sad is that?
