We don't have a problem with contemporary artists covering cheesy tunes from the '80s. Hey, if you were into it and you want to pay tribute to the song that was playing when you lost your virginity (or dreamed of touching someone for the first time) or whatever teenage milestone you want to relive, fine by us. But, the ironic cover has become soooooooooo old by now, it's just not amusing anymore (if indeed it ever was). Except to lame-ass hipsters, of course.
So, Bon Iver, current darling of the musically ADD set, has of late incorporated The Outfield's "Your Love" to the nightly repertoire, much to his followers' gleeful delight. Don't think so? The dead giveaway is in the laughs that greeted the opening lyrics in the clip below. This shit has got stop already. Ugh.
