Passenger is continuing releasing cover songs in his new Sunday Night SeriesĀ on YouTube with a beautiful cover version this week of Paul Simon’s ‘Diamonds On The Soles Of Her Shoes‘. A song that starts with a cool guitar intro that sees Passenger dancing around the stage to the smiles of his backing band.
The video was directed as usual by the brilliant Jarrad Seng, and it was filmed in Stockholm, Sweden on stage in an empty concert venue.
Other songs in his Sunday Night Series include R.E.M.’s ‘Losing My Religion‘, Elton John’s ‘Can You Feel The Love Tonight’, and Joy Division’s ‘Love Will Tear Us Apart‘.
Watch Passenger’s cover of ‘Diamonds On The Soles Of Her Shoes’ below. It’s lovely. And, can I ask, is there no song Passenger cannot perform as good or better than the original artist?
