Arcade Fire have covered ‘Mind Games’ in Chicago.
The band played the John Lennon classic at their Lollapalooza after-show last night, but didn’t settle for a regular cover version. That’d be too straightforward. Instead, Win Butler & co. played a ‘Mind Games’ mashup, mixing in lyrics from Radiohead’s ‘Karma Police’, David Bowie’s ‘Oh You Pretty Things’ and their own ‘Wake Up’ from 2004’s ‘Funeral’.
The result is very ‘Capital-S-Sensitive’ indeed. Check it out below.
