Father John Misty has jumped on the 1989 rework hype covering Ryan Adams' version of 'Black Space' in the style of The Velvet Underground.
In the most meta music event of the year, the former Fleet Foxes drummer posted his lengthy and mocking rendition of the Ryan Adams cover track within 24 hours of the album's release.
Less of a straightforward Tay-Tay homage as it is an 'I'm Waiting For Your Man' cover with 'Blank Space' lyrics - Tillman even captures and perfectly imitates all the Lou Reed idiosyncrasies. Once he's done taking the piss out of Ryan Adams, we'd very much love a Father John Mistry/Lou Reed cover album.
