Watch: Guided By Voices vs. A German Choir
JoeDiddly by Luke Slater September 2nd, 2009

Choirs and popular music have been a staple of the DiS content over the past year. OK, that's maybe not strictly true but there was the case of the deaf choir signing Joy Division's 'Love Will Tear Us Apart' the other month.

This time, the beautiful people at Magnet Magazine have brought this to our attention. It's a German choir from Eschwege, Germany performing Guided By Voices' 'Goldheart Mountaintop Queen Directory'.

Guided By Voices' - 'Goldheart Mountaintop Queen Directory':

Eschwege Choir - 'Goldheart, Mountaintop Queen Directory':

Magnet's Edward Fairchild thought the cover was better than the original. Is it? No.
