The big winner for this month is pretty obvious, I should think: Vitamin String Quartet. Not present is their cover of “Riptide,” but don’t worry, it’ll show up soon, because it’s wonderful. We’ve also got a strong showing from Mumford & Sons, plus Angus & Julia Stone, Death Cab for Cutie, and Logan Mays.9
- I’m gonna be honest, I think this one only stayed in my playlists as long as it did because of how great the name is. ↩
- Deconstructed, of course. ↩
- I found out way after I first heard their cover of this song that it’s French rap, I believe? Either way, it sounds cool. ↩
- Found on the album Angus & Julia Stone: The Remixes. ↩
- I think it’s a rule that I’ve got to have one ‘hard rock’ song on my playlist. ↩
- There’s a whole lot of VSQ in here. Probably something to do with the fact that I was, in a bygone era, a violinist, and I’ve still got a place in my heart for string instruments. ↩
- Fun fact: my aunt really likes this song, and was very surprised when she found out it’s a cover of a song from a video game. ↩
- Every song off VSQ Performs the Hits of 2014, Vol. 3 has “(String Quartet Tribute to [Original Artist])” at the end, but I’m going to leave that off of these. Just know that the rest of the VSQ on this list is all off of Hits of 2014, Volume 3, and you’ll be able to find them, no problem. ↩
- None of the others get a link because I’m too lazy to look their websites up: Logan’s, I know off the top of my head, because it’s running off of my server. ↩
