Foster the People's "Pumped Up Kicks" was everywhere in 2011. A catchy melody with a different sound made for an infectious song that became very popular. Owl Eyes has released a cover of the song, with Brooke Addamo putting a female spin on it.
I really like Addamo's voice and the simplicity of the somewhat stripped down version. It's not quite different enough to be mind-blowing and there is something a little lacking without the layering of voices during the choruses from the original, but I really like where she is going with the song.
And of course whistling always adds a little something.
