While out promoting their "difficult" Congratulations, MGMT aren't performing their old hits like "Kids" or "Time to Pretend." They'll only do the songs if they feel like it, which is like Flock of Seagulls deciding not to do "I Ran" anymore unless they feel it. But an emo rapper has decided to pick up the slack: B.o.B. has covered "Kids" pretty credibly, replacing the synths with some cheesy Gym Class Heroes squeaks, which isn't all that bad. At least it's better than most of Congratulations.
This only part of this cover that isn't AWESOME is the fact that now I can actually understand the lyrics. And realize they are pretty asinine. Like, I thought it was "a family of cheeeeeeeeese".
