Passion Pit’s Michael Angelakos tackles Smashing Pumpkins melancholy, melodramatic “Tonight, Tonight” for Levi’s Pioneer series. Previously we heard Dirty Projectors cover Dylan, and The Shins do Squeeze’s “Goodbye Girl.” Listen below, and sign up with Levi’s to download the track and hear Angelakos replace Billy Corgan’s growl with his own falsetto. Or hear Angelakos talk about doing it:

Meh. Nothing they’re done since “Chunk of Change” has really excited me. It’s not like they’ve burned out, but they’re sort of fading away …. (At least to my ears.)
Ehh…their cover of The Cranberries’ Dreams was much better.
These guys really have no shame when it comes to being corporate whores. Between this and their “secret” NYC show sponsored by Kin I’m starting to get concerned. I guess you gotta get paid — since no one is buying records anymore I suppose this is the only way how.
I like this better than the original! It’s a beauty. I’ll have to check out the Cranberries cover.
I found this guy on YouTube! Let me know what you guys think? Here is his latest video he uploaded. Check it out and let me know….Thanks!
