Mac DeMarco covers The Beatles, Neil Young, Metallica, Limp Bizkit & more
We already know Mac DeMarco is partial to a cover or two, given his rather interesting take on Weezer recently. Now he’s only gone and proven his dab-hand at taking other people’s tracks and sort-of butchering them, but in the most beautiful of ways.
The Canadian singer recently decided to dive head-first into a medley of epic portions at a recent show in Bloomington, covering Limp Bizkit’s Break Stuff’, Metallica’s ‘Enter Sandman’, The Beatles’ ‘Blackbird’, Eric Clapton’s ‘Cocaine’, The Police’s ‘Message in a Bottle’, Neil Young’s ‘Unknown Legend’ and, if that wasn’t enough, Bachman-Turner Overdrive’ ‘Takin’ Care of Business’ also.
Luckily, someone recorded the entire thing, so you can take a listen beneath:
