While there's still no release date in sight for Everyone's Getting Involved: A Tribute to Talking Heads' Stop Making Sense, the singles keep on rolling in. Next on the roster is Lorde, famous fan of rivers, who's revealed her cover Talking Heads' cover of the Al Green classic "Take Me to the River."
Lorde's version of the track stays mostly true to the More Songs About Buildings and Food version, swapping out the original organ for a bumping synth line. Listen to it below.
In typical Lorde fashion, the singer has penned a lengthy letter about the cover, saying in part, "This version of the first Talking Heads song I ever heard was done in a few days in Echo Park, L.A. It's my interpretation of that pixellated spiritual experience."
Leading up to the compilation's release, Record Store Day ambassadors Paramore shared their rendition of "Burning Down the House," trading with David Byrne whose cover of "Hard Times" is coming soon. Teezo Touchdown has also submitted his version of "Making Flippy Floppy."
