Midweek Makeover: Such Promise

Okay, so I’ve completely dropped the ball here.  It’s not you, it’s me.  Really.  I’ll be back, for sure.  Tonight, we take a look at a cover for which I make no apologies.

Britney (the clip you’re getting is from a Miami “live” performance, which is just as well, as Miami is where I was when I came to really appreciate this track):

The Cellibabies hit a great cover, here.  Now, I need to note a couple of things.  First, you need to FF to 2:38 to even hear it.  Second, you need to understand my deep appreciation for all things cello.  Finally, this entry is dedicated to all those poor junior high cellists who didn’t understand how hot Jaqueline DuPre was:

It can be improved upon, for sure.  So let’s get to it.
