Here comes Under The Covers With Mayhem Chapter 11, featuring Japanese band Salon Music and their cover of the Buzzcocks classic from 1978, “Ever Fallen in Love (With Someone You Shouldn’t’ve)” is what some might describe as salon music. But don’t let that put you off, it is a chilled, strange, wondrous, and contradistinctive version of the song. Salon Music are a new wave duo consisting of Hitomi Takenaka and Zin Yoshida. They were active from 1983 to 2011 and they released twelve studio albums during that time. This cover can be found on their ‘Tiger Moth’ EP from 1996.
Constant readers know that my ideal cover version has a different slant from the original rather than just a facsimile-style cover. So the generic boy bands are probably never likely to feature, but you never know, right? Feel free to recommend any songs that you think should be included in Under The Covers With Mayhem. I want to stay clear of the mainstream ideally, but off-the-wall covers by major artists might work too 🙂 Finally and at last there is a playlist that collects all the Under The Covers With Mayhem tracks together. Currently thirteen songs and 53 minutes of music. Check it out below.
