Fiona Apple, Vampire W, Beck + more on "Sweetheart 2014"
Quote:
A reminder that Valentine’s Day is just about two months down the road: On February 4, Hear Music/Concord Music Group will release the compilation Sweetheart 2014, featuring a bunch of big names covering older songs that tend toward the romantic. Highlights include Vampire Weekend doing Andrea Bocelli, Fiona Apple and her sister Maude Maggart doing Anton Karas, Phosphorescent doing Bob Dylan, Beck doing John Lennon, and a bunch more.
Have a listen to My Morning Jacket’s Jim James' take on Bob Marley's “Turn Your Lights Down Low”, above. Sample all of the tracks on the album through the link.
The physical version of the album will be sold only at Starbucks. It will also be available digitally through all outlets. It’s the fifth in a series of Valentine’s Day covers albums that Starbucks has sold.
Sweetheart 2014:
01 Jim James: “Turn Your Lights Down Low” (Bob Marley cover)
02 Vampire Weekend: “Con Te Partiṛ” (Inspired by the Andrea Bocelli recording)
03 Beck: “Love” (John Lennon cover)
04 Phosphorescent: “Tomorrow Is A Long Time” (Bob Dylan cover)
05 The Head and the Heart: “Don’t Forget Me” (Harry Nilsson cover)

I don't even care how random this is, the fact that it's just a bunch of covers, or that it's an irrelevant Starbucks album... the fact that Fiona is putting out another cover next year instead of just totally going back into hiding I'm not ready
