#10 - kelly clarkson: since u been gone



'here's the thing - we started out friends...'

man. when ted leo likes your songs enough to cover them, i think we've got something here. and here's the thing - 'since u been gone' is one of the best breakup songs in the last five years. it's an ultimate 'fuck you' song to an ex. it's one of the best poppy rock songs i've ever heard - it builds slowly with the guitar and then -bam- hits the chorus right in your face. what i've included today is a mashup of 'since u been gone' and the american analog set's 'hard to find'. the song stands on its own, seperate from the two. aggro1, who did the mashup, was actually contacted by the american analog set band who gave him access to acapellas and instrumentals for redoing the mashup properly.

as far as i'm concerned, when a band as great american analog set wants you to mash a kelly clarkson one into yours, the song's got something to it.
