Luna: Ride Into the Sun


If ever there were a Sunday morning cover, it's Luna's stab at the Velvet Underground's "Ride Into the Sun." While Luna took much of their sound from Lou Reed and company, this cover is simply divine. So cooly paced, it's nearly quiescent. And hell, it's a beautiful Sunday morning, so we should just proceed to the breakdown.

Song Breakdown

Best Place and Time for Listen:

A quiet, verdant spot that has an unimpeded view of the sky.

If This Song Was a Celebrity It Would Be:

The most even keeled NBA player of them all, double zero, The Chief, Robert Parish.

I'm just sayin'. And I think I'm liking Sunday to be set aside exclusively for covers.
