So I missed Matthew Sweet and Susanna Hoffs (Sid n Susie) perform on The Tonight Show last night. NBC doesn’t have the video of their performance of Neil Young’s Cinammon Girl and neither does YouTube. Help me out!
To feed my Matthew Sweet jones (before I buy Under the Covers, Vol. 1), I’ve found some other sources of the sweetness.
Video:
- Matthew Sweet – Superdeformed
- Space Ghost – Urges featuring an interview with Matthew
Music:
Matthew was on 99x this morning talking about the collaboration with Susanna and the album of cover 60’s songs, Under the Covers, Vol. 1 and his fear of flying. From what I’ve heard, there should definitely be a Vol. 2 and Matthew should fly to Atlanta to grace us with a performance. I haven’t seen him since 2001 at The Roxy. Come back, Matthew!
So, until NBC posts a clip of last night’s performance or 99x posts the interview we’ll all have to settle for the links above or our own iTunes. *Sigh*
Go buy the cd at Decatur CD. While there, put you name in the hopper for the cd poster autographed by Matthew Sweet (and I think Susanna Hoffs as well).
Cool. Thanks for the tip, Paulie.
I stayed up to watch the Tonight Show segment. It was a nice performance (can’t remember the song). What shocked me though is how much weight Sweet has gained – he looks so different now.
The song, supposedly, was Cinammon Girl by Neil Young.
He was looking heavy back in 2001 so I’m not surprised he’s gained more weight.
That’s right, it was Cinnamon Girl. I guess I haven’t seen what he’s looked like in a while. He hasn’t had his picture on his albums since 100% Fun, and that cover was a picture of him as a kid.
