Taken by Trees is the solo project of Victoria Bergsman, better known to me as the girl from PB&J's "Young Folks" (I never listened to The Concretes). This is her cover of the best Tarzan-chest-pound inducing anthem 2009 has ever seen, just from a different perspective. I'm sure all your wives will love it:
I guess I'm the "covers guy" on here or something.

Jill Andrews
Another WDVX friend (I call her a friend because I am secretly in love with her, but she probably doesn't remember my name -- story of my life, you guys), Jill Andrews is currently journeying into a solo career after the very unfortunate breakup of The Everybodyfields. I saw them perform on the Blue Plate stage during the aforementioned summer of 2007, and they immediately became one of my favorite bands. Then a few months later, they moved from Johnson City to Knoxville, and Jill moved in with my friend Matt Morelock two blocks down the street from my house. I almost needed professional help to suppress my inner stalker (my roommate at the time had the fortunate experience of seeing her in a bathrobe once). Then she had a baby with an acquaintance... and she will forever be just far enough removed from my social life to be out of reach. Kind of like Kevin Bacon.
Anyway, the past few months she has been releasing videos of herself performing acoustic covers in her home. This month's cover is special because my brother (claims he) suggested the song choice to her via Twitter. And also because it's an old My Morning Jacket favorite:
