If there is one band alone who owe much of their success to word of mouth amongst bloggers, it’s Arcade Fire, but blogs or no blogs, I like to think that they would have made it anyway, due to being pretty bloody brilliant.

Anyway, given that I love to post covers, here at 17 Seconds today, it’s an Arcade Fire Special!

Arcade Fire -‘Naive Melody (Talking Heads cover).’ mp3

Arcade Fire -‘Five Years (David Bowie cover).’ mp3< Arcade Fire -‘Maps (Yeah Yeah Yeahs cover).’ mp3 Arcade Fire -‘Guns Of Brixton(Clash cover).’ mp3 Arcade Fire -‘Poupee de Cire, Poupee de son(France Gall cover).’ mp3

Found an excellent venezuelan blog that has also posted some good, different Arcade Fire cover versions, called Deaf Indie Elephants, which you should check out too.

Arcade Fire’s official site is here and a very good fan site is here
