I feel like doing a thread of Ted Leo covers, and I Don& #39;t need your approval!

Ted Leo& #39;s one of my favorite singer/songwriters. I almost feel bad for how much I fucking LOVE him doing covers. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JlVoiKfbefo">https://www.youtube.com/watch...
Luckily, he seems happy as hell doing them. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uV6NQYMJaV8">https://www.youtube.com/watch...
For @KevinMarcou so I can get him in the gang https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZB9DaqSLCtI">https://www.youtube.com/watch...
I was AT this show and virtually next to whomever was filming this. And Ted and I both had the flu, which I b& #39;lieve we both picked up in DC about a week before. it was a crusher. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=45_stysMCH8">https://www.youtube.com/watch...
Ted& #39;s one of the reasons I& #39;m super sad about live shows right now. This is actually on one of his albums, but why not enjoy the vitality of live? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wVX6n_t356I">https://www.youtube.com/watch...
I think one reason I like him so much is we have similar taste in music. here he& #39;s covering the Jam. I think he doubles the speed on his covers, though. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=woA7xSfZk0c">https://www.youtube.com/watch...
Covering Cock Sparrer, whom I admit I didn& #39;t know about until after I heard this cover. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=69UbMuBoVik">https://www.youtube.com/watch...
Covering the Waco Brothers, and ... i prefer this version. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Qgymzlgdo4">https://www.youtube.com/watch...
Absolutely beautiful Thin Lizzy cover... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WK9trC3TOAo">https://www.youtube.com/watch...
Not going to put his cover of Dirty Old Town in here because you know what? I hate every one& #39;s version of that song.

INSTEAD have the cover that started me down this path 13+ yrs ago. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DBr5FPIL8UU">https://www.youtube.com/watch...

I& #39;m a bad singer on a good day but that falsetto just rips my throat out. Anyway.
A genuinely tremendous cover of Liz Phair& #39;s Fuck and Run, because all cool people love that album. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J1i_wlTEnro">https://www.youtube.com/watch...

A Bowie cover for a kid& #39;s album! He even does a passable copy of Bowie& #39;s hmm, low-breath sound. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ju50j_b7QEo">https://www.youtube.com/watch...
A Chumbawamba cover called Rappaport& #39;s Testament which was, again, how I discovered a song. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jky7ZaQExog">https://www.youtube.com/watch...
Two months ago I woke up to a text from my friend Ash, who knew I& #39;d be super excited to see this: Rise Against + Converge + Ted Leo + Gouge Away cover The Replacement’s “Kids Don’t Follow” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3iy8W32ZEpA">https://www.youtube.com/watch...
Cuz I& #39;ve essentially been begging Ted to cover The Mats over twitter for years. This was not the song I woulda chosen, but choosy beggars eh?
Not until I saw that, did I know about ... this. Wherein Ted forgets EVERY WORD to my FAVORITE mats song. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FWnm1yLeyzQ">https://www.youtube.com/watch...
