A new Canadian artist? I can't get enough of this song, so here are two exceptional live versions...the whole album is amazing. Pure bliss.

Can't get enough of this sweet cover...

Yes, a fabulous song. But it's not a cover. Klaatu wrote the song and recorded it on their brilliant 1976 album "3:47 EST". When the album came out, there was a rumour going around that they were actually The Beatles recording secretly under the name Klaatu. Several of the songs have a Beatles quality to them.

If you've never heard "3:47 EST", check it out. It's a fantastic album. My favourite tracks are "Little Neutrino" and "Anus of Uranus", though they're not very Beatles-like.

Here are a couple that are more Beatles-like:

The vocals in this one don't sound like The Beatles but the music does a bit:
