Nada Surf cover "If You Leave" for 2nd OC CD

Postby Surly » Fri Oct 22, 2004 6:57 am

Nada Surf have recorded a cover version of OMD's "If You Leave" for [i]The O.C. Mix 2[/i] soundtrack, and I like it. A bit slower and mellower than the original version, but still good. If you only know Nada Surf for their late-'90s hit "Popular," you should investigate their album [i]Let Go[/i], which was released in early 2003. It's a brilliant and at times moving album, in particular the single "Inside Of Love." Ever hear a song and feel as if the writer is channeling your life? That's what this song is to me.

Anyway, I dig this cover version.

Thanks for the heads up Surly, I'd like to hear that version. I agree with you on that 2003 release by Nada Surf, it is totally brilliant, one gem after another, and definitely the track you mention. Excellent Call.
