Serena Ryder - Funeral (Band of Horses cover)

I’ve listened to this BoH song hundreds of times and I never realized it was about vengeance.  Serena Ryder distills its essence and smacks you in the face with it. Now that’s the sign of a remarkable cover.

I’m coming up only to hold you under
I’m coming up only to show you wrong
and to know you is hard,
and we wonder…..

Thanks to Heather for the discovery.
