Department of Eagles: "Love Me" (Elvis Presley cover)(MP3)

8:34 p.m. · February 11, 2009 · by Andria Spring

If you're going to spend your hard-earned cash on a covers album this winter, War Child's Heroes is probably the way to go, especially if you want to feel all warm and fuzzy about the proceeds of your purchase going towards a good cause. Buying Starbuck's latest Sweetheart compilation is less likely to make you feel warm and fuzzy- except if you buy a $5 latte along with the CD.

But there are a few treats on Sweetheart nonetheless, Department of Eagles' resonant take on Elvis Presley's "Love Me" being one of them. Sit back with a homebrewed cup of joe and let Daniel Rossen serenade you, without lining the pockets of any corporations. Nice. [Hype Machine via Stereogum]
