When I saw Lily Allen back in March in Atlanta she did an acoustic version of “Heart of Glass” as one of her encores. She actually did a bunch of covers because she only has one record (The Kooks, Keane), but this one in particular was amazing. She played it sort of vaudeville, but her clean, girlish voice pulled it off.
Well, evidently Debbie Harry got wind of Lily’s recent penchant for the cover, so now the two are planning to team up for an appearance on NBC’s Today Show tomorrow morning.
And, God bless Youtube, someone has actually posted the cover of “Heart of Glass” that I saw at Center Stage:
