I'm not a really a Jimmy Eat World fan, but I love their cover. Yes! I have never been all that keen on them musically, and then they made some derogatory comments about pop. I found this amusing if only because they proved what morons they are and that they should really just stick to the singing. So, yeah. Not a fan, but I REALLY love that cover. They give it the right amount of wistfulness, and I was bopping my head right along with them.
I also love the Snow Patrol song. There's a part, when it's sort of quiet and he's singing really softly before it gets louder and he sings, "It's funny how you misunderstand. I only want to hold your hand." I love that part. Me, too! I was reading a review at some lyrics website, and she mentioned the quiet desperation running along just under the surface, which I think is a pretty apt description of the song. Plus I love Gary Lightbody's voice and it fits the moodily romantic lyrics perfectly.
