Jul. 15th, 2009 12:38 amI was so excited for about fifteen seconds about the existence of a tender acoustic ballad cover of "Poker Face" by some dude, and I was so disappointed to find that he had regendered the lyrics to keep it straight (well, as straight as it ever was).
So here, have the version of "You Oughta Know" that I wish that dude's cover of "Poker Face" were more analogous to.
(...or, wait, is he keeping "Poker Face" queer by changing the pronouns? Is it now about a dude picking up a girl and secretly fantasizing about dudes? Somehow it doesn't really come through that way. Mostly I think he doesn't know what the song is about.)
WAIT, you know what someone SERIOUSLY HAS TO DO with this dude's[1] cover of "Poker Face". OCEAN'S ELEVEN VID Y/Y?
[1] Yes, I now know he is a dude who was on "American Idol" at some point.
