Yo La Tengo sing "Friday I'm in Love" through the apocalypse in new video (watch)

Yo La Tengo Friday I'm in Love

As mentioned, Yo La Tengo‘s new album, Stuff Like That There, is in Fakebook mode, a mix of covers, reworkings of their own songs and a few new songs in there, too. Among the covers is a lovely, Georgia Hubley-sung take on The Cure’s treacly “Friday I’m in Love.” The band has just shared its video, which was directed by Jason Woliner (Human Giant, Nathan for You) and has Hubley singing the song as the apocalypse happens around her. It’s a slightly less bleak take on it than, say, The Leftovers. As to what brings the world to an end, well you’re just going to have to watch, below.

Yo La Tengo’s acoustic tour hits NYC on October 10 at Kings Theatre with special guest Nick Lowe. Tickets are still available.
