The songs that were on repeat on MyPod in 2011... 20. Charlene Soraia - 'Wherever You Will Go' 19. Adele - 'Someone Like You' 18. The Horrors - 'Still Life' 17. Foster the People - 'Pumped Up Kicks' [...]

My love for a good cover remains strong with this one, St. Vincent's ridiculously good version of The Pop Group's She is Beyond Good and Evil - if you care for the excellent abuse of a good guitar, this one is quite clearly for you.

Recording these songs live for the first time, St Vincent has performed four tracks from Strange Mercy for the tenth visual installment in the 4AD Session series. Shot at Shangri-La Studios in the heart of the Brooklyn film and photography district in Greenpoint, the session was recorded with Annie's new band, Daniel Mintseris (keys), Toko Yasuda (moog) and Matthew Johnson (drums).
