Lace played the Electrelane version of this Springsteen song a couple weeks ago on her show when I was up choreographing. Along with The Shop Assistants' Peel Sessions version of "Ace of Spades," the Au Pairs' "Repetition," and Raincoats' "Lola," this song is on the short list of best cover versions by an all girl or anti-gender norm post punk band, admittedly a rather narrow category. Grand prize goes to Huggy Bear for its demo version of "Sun Shiny Day."
This video was recorded at the Parish in Austin in June 2007. I was wondering, "Why wasn't I there?" I was just arriving in Lyon for my long sojourn in France, and I'm starting to realize that those two months last summer were probably the last time I will ever do anything so completely irresponsible and exhilarating.

Every time I'm at the station, and when nobody's in the dj booth, I go play this song off of the Real Audio playlist on the computer.
