Linus and Lucifer by doubtfulpalace

Linus and Lucifer is a cover of Vince Guaraldi’s “Linus and Lucy,” from the Peanuts special, “A Charlie Brown Christmas.” It’s electronica – more dark and intense and harsh, compared to the sweetness and light of the original. It’s still entertaining and fun, and you can still do Peanuts dances to it!

I’ve noodled with the website a bit – there’s now an HTML5 player for the individual songs, which works on mobile devices. Also, I put the Yahoo Webplayer on – look to the bottom left – so you can play all the songs on a page! So, you can hear, say, all the “instrumental” music, one page at a time. It requires Flash, for now.

Hopelessly Devoted to You by chococat

I remembered the movie Grease as being bubblegum pop songs about teenage love. chococat watched and paid attention to an oft-neglected song, and noticed that Hopelessly Devoted to You is actually sorta dark and stalker-ish, and made a cover that emphasized that aspect.

You can compare it to the original version. The lightness doesn’t quite shake the tone of the cover for me, but your mileage may vary.
