New Cover: “So Alive”

Yes, I’m slowly working my way through the 80s on KROQ. This one is from Love & Rockets, a spin-off of Bauhaus, but a lot more commercially accessible. This is their biggest hit (it went to #3 in the US and #1 in some other countries). My version is slightly more upbeat than the original, and also features a guitar part that’s probably more at home in New Order than either Bauhaus or L&R. And yes, it’s me playing the guitar; I have so many, I should really start playing them more. I’m also singing; this song is square in my range, and also, covers about four notes. Super easy. Enjoy! — JS
