Aussie songwriter/indie pop impresario PJ Wolf a/k/a Thief, who’s playful (and a little bit of an anthem) “Closer” was one of our favorite tunes of last fall, turns in an inventive rhythmically re-rinsed cover of a more than likely musical kindred spirit Justin Timberlake and one of the greatest songs of the 00’s (and probably of all time) “Cry Me a River”. Turn up the B3 Premiere of Thief’s take on “Cry Me a River” below.

LOVE this cover. I didn’t know how I felt about it at first, but then the synth horns kicked in and brought a Miami flavor (my hometown) and then that arpeggiator in the chorus…!! Amaze!
