Wednesday Wadio: Travis Does Britney, But Who Hasn't?
They fell off faster than a fat kid on a see-saw, but for a brief moment in 2001 Scottish band Travis were on top of the world and one of my very favorites. This is a cover of Britney's (oooh, timely!) Hit Me Baby One More Time that was performed at Glastonbury that year - and it stands alone as a super tune. The minor guitar chords and Fran Healey's sweetie-pie voice give it a sad, eerie feeling. Much how Mr. and Mrs. Spears must have felt when Britney brought that oozing cock sore into their home for the first time. See what you think.

What was the Canadian tune they were going to cover after that crap?
Good call with the Travis Dave...
Love the tune Why does it Always Rain on my Parade...
Badass
Oops, fucked that one up, Why does it always Rain on me...
Art - I wondered that too. No idea. Hopefully not SUM41.
Greg - there is an amazing Travis live DVD that you can find at Newbury Comics. It's my favorite live concert movie ever. Such a great band. I wish they'd had a longer lifespan.
Just come over to the house and flex those calves. I'll give you anything you want.
