The musicians have also proven themselves quite an able cover band, taking on the likes of Radiohead, Tom Petty and an inspired take on Fleetwood Mac’s “Everywhere,” a song Batmanglij and Keonig bonded over one hazy night back at Columbia.
“Ezra and I got really high, and I played the Fleetwood Mac version for him. He was blown away,” Batmanglij chuckles. “Even though there’s a lot of heavy production going on, at the heart of it is a great song. That’s where it all connected.”

I love the last comment about the over-production. I totally agree. I think that had Everywhere been produced more simplistically that it would have been an even bigger and classic song. The chorus is awesome to sing along to and I feel that LB just subdued it sooo much on the TITN version...mind you it was the 80s so that explains a lot haha
