Today I’ve got my two favorite covers of the Beatles song “And I Love
Her.” The first, from Os Mutantes member Rita Lee’s first solo album,
is definitely the grower of the two. Lee gives a full-throated, sci-fi
cabaret treatment to the song that’s a bit shocking at first, but
ultimately insanely winning. While David Bowie is watching the
cruisers below, he should be listening to this. The second cover comes
from a young Bob Marley, who turns the pop song into a deep soul
number by pouring his heart into it. Without losing the sweetness of
the song’s underlying sentiment, Marley sings it almost like a lament.
He aches, but with what pleasure.
