Future Islands' "Seasons (Waiting On You) is sure to go down in history as one of 2014's most talked-about songs (for good reason - it's a belter). Toronto three-piece BADBADNOTGOOD have an uphill struggle to rework the ditty, then.
Now, instead of the affecting synthpop swells, BBNG have provided us with a '60s lounge-jazz version of the track. Samuel T. Herring is no longer the enigmatic frontman, but a slinky Vegas crooner with a touch of glorious hamminess.
Listen below.
