All you ever wanted, all you ever needed, is here in my arms.

This was a bit too massive covers-wise to allow to stay hidden in the comments, so if you're a Depeche Mode fan and you find yourself wishing for more covers of "Enjoy the Silence" than ever needed to exist, head over to this MOKB post.

Also, here's a nice e-mail I received recently from web animator extraordinaire, Scott Bateman, who creates a new web animation every damned day:

Here's how it happened:

A while back you posted Sawa Kobayashi's cover of "Patience." I
listened to it like, all the time, and mentioned it in my blog. Sawa
Googled herself apparently, and left a comment in my blog. I asked her
if I could animate "Patience" as part of my Bateman365 project (I'm
making an animated film every day for a year; today is day 271). She
said yes.

The animation went up this morning at:

And it couldn't have happened without you!

Take care,
Scott

Pretty cool, huh?
