Glow in the Dark Update
May 2, 2008
Remember when I said that Rihanna singing M.I.A.’s “Paper Planes” was my favorite part of the Glow in the Dark concert in Austin? Well, one of our friends in the “nosebleeds” recorded it! It doesn’t sound as great here as it did live (whatever does?) but it gives you the idea. It’s not the whole song, but the best part…
Rihanna’s version:
And the original:
And, I didn’t know this until too late, but M.I.A. played tonight at La Zona Rosa. It was sold out before I even had a chance to think! The concert last night was so good, I don’t know if I could have handled this one!

sorry, but that rihanna cover was weak. besides, isn’t there some unwritten rule that you can’t cover a song that just came out in the last year??? especially if you’re going to do a crap job on it…her performance lacked energy altogether.
