"Stop Draggin My Heart Around", My Morning Jacket and Neko Case

Well take a Stevie Nicks classic and add a couple of hipsters with a captive crowd and this is what you get.

A self indulgent slurred up version of the radio staple of my youth.  What I cant understand is why they feel compelled to actually mimic the vocal tones used by Nicks rather than using their own voice… its karaoke night and you're al invited.  How about more than 1 verse and 28 thousand repeats of the line "stop draggin my heart around'?  How about quit draggin out this performance?

I adore covers, make no bones about it.  But I like covers done with a new spin- not a Talent Show remake of a classic rock song.  The hipsters will cheer, the realists will jeer and me, I'm outta here. But before I go what the HELL sort of sausage casing is she wearing??
