Kill Peaches -- "Dreams" (Snowden Covers Fleetwood Mac)

Not an actual release, but still made by Jordan Jeffares of Snowden.

Fleetwood Mac's "Dreams" is one of my all-time favorite songs. While I was researching artists that may have covered "Dreams" I found this by accident.
Pretty much fell for it right away. Stevie Nicks has a voice that is notoriously difficult to emulate. I always wondered how a masculine voice could approach the song and still maintain the integrity of the original while simultaneously making it one's "own" instead of just a rehash.

Here is what I was able to find about this song:

From the article:
"Hahaha... I am the soul keeper of the true source of Kill Peaches... and I will leak it to only you. It was done by my little brother... Jordan. You probably know him formally as Snowden. He gets a bug every so often to do a fun cover, but didn't want to do the covers as Snowden. The local DJ's (myself included) had been playing Time Of The Season too much and half-jokingly started begging for more covers of old songs that were kind of dancey, but not quite enough. Jordan went home and did this remake in his bedroom in a few hours. He mixed it in his car, on a laptop and headphones.... and used a wireless connection from a coffee shop nearby to send it to me just in time for my gig the next night. Kill Peaches was chosen as the name... because right when he got the idea to do the remake... the DJ played Peaches... who Jordan doesn't particularly care for.

So... there's the story. You're the first to know."

I don't know what the hell I am doing.
Thanks to "fastfocustv" for the fantastic footage!
