Hand Me Down Tuesday | Run Toto Run – Sleepyhead (Passion Pit Cover)

• Tweet

I know what you’ve all been thinking. Why in the hell are we not seeing as much Passion Pit coverage on SC as we’re used to? And to answer that…………..I got nothing.

Anyhow, I’ve been messing about with Turntable fm. a bit and one of the biggest bright spots thus far (next to being able to showcase my love of 80′s hip hop by consistently rotating- 

Zapp & Roger – More Bounce To The Ounce

and two others laced with it-

EPMD – You Gots to Chill and MC Breed – Ain’t No Future In Yo’ Frontin’

-was finding this awesome and stripped down cover of Passion Pit’s “Sleepyhead” by Run toto Run. It’s got a mandolin, a violin, a xylophone,  sugary sweet vocals, and programmed handclaps-I really don’t know what else you could ask for. It’s not new by any means, but it should bring a smile to your face. Happy Tuesday, everyone!
