As Told by Ginger (Theme Song Cover), Unouomedude
I just discovered this short compilation of mostly 90′s kids show theme songs by Unouomedude, and I couldn’t help but post it here immediately. Being theme songs, the entire 7-song album (which you can download from this very link) is less than 7 minutes long, and it includes covers of the theme songs from Malcolm In the Middle, Pepper Ann, the Disney Channel classic Lizzie McGuire and this version of the theme from the underrated Nickelodeon cartoon As Told by Ginger, originally by Macy Gray. For those of you who don’t remember, the show was about a charming but socially outcast middle schooler with curly hair, which I suspect Macy can relate to. Like many of her songs, its simple and relatable, fitting the show perfectly. Musically, all of the covers have a distinctly low-fi, fuzzy Pavement-y feel to them that just reeks of hipster irony. Maybe this is some awesome nostalgia, maybe its the ultimate act of hipsterdom or maybe its a little bit weird, but I think its awesome regardless.
this is amazing
