Our partnership with Philadelphia singer-songwriter Denison Witmer bears more wonderful fruit today: Denison has sent along a cover of Is There A Ghost, the lead track from Band of Horses release Cease to Begin and, according to Rolling Stone, one of the 100 Best Songs of 2007, and I'm happy to report that this newest coversong is already stuck in my head.
Denison's take on Is There A Ghost is a strong addition to a growing collection of solo acoustic covers, all of which can be heard below. But where the other recordings in Denison's cover series have generally been immersive, establishing a tone and inhabiting it, the highly repetitive lyrics of the song here work against such a singular approach. The language of the original is in its delivery, most especially the chilly echoing shoegaze atmosphere, and the way it downshifts into its long, driving, anthemic peak just before the song's midpoint.
Denison's take on the song is powerfully atmospheric, too. But given his deliberate, stripped-down approach to covers, this is a very different atmosphere. The cover starts ragged, lo-fi and low key, as if just awakened; it is very much of a set with the earlier songs he has recorded for this project, though warmer and lusher in tone from the very first moment. Instead of being split in two, it coalesces slowly over the first verse, the sound becoming first richer, then building energy over the last few measures before fading away.
By taking on a subtle, acoustic reflection of the original's pacing and energy, starting farther back, and working within a much more focused range of emotional build, Denison creates a wonderful warmth without losing the tension which makes this song work in the first place. In the end, we are left with a perfect fragment, a short, almost tender study in exhausted hope and acceptance. If the point here is to get us excited about the impending album, it's working.
- Denison Witmer: Is There A Ghost (orig. Band of Horses)
Previously on the Denison Witmer Covers Project:
- Denison Witmer: Comfort You (orig. Van Morrison)
- Denison Witmer: Champagne Supernova (orig. Oasis)
- Denison Witmer: Have You Forgotten (orig. Red House Painters)
- Dension Witmer: I Can't Make You Love Me (orig. Bonnie Raitt)
(released via MySpace, 2008)
New Denison Witmer album Carry the Weight drops on November 11th; the first single, Beautiful Boys and Girls, is already available in digital form.
Since we're on the subject, how about a few bonus tracks and linkbacks? This Grizzly Bear cover is about as folk as Band of Horses gets, but it's worth the listen. And finding both Denison and new Band of Horses second guitarist Tyler Ramsey covering the same song was too perfect to miss:
- Band of Horses cover Grizzly Bear's Plans
- Denison Witmer does a gorgeously ringing, pensive cover of Jackson Browne/Nico hit These Days on his 2003 covers album Recovered...
- ...and Tyler Ramsey does a languid alt-folk These Days, too.
We'll be back next weekend with another installment of the Denison Witmer Covers Project. Coming up Sunday: our Covered in Kidfolk series triumphantly returns with a set of songs about movement.

You might make the "I Can't Make You Love Me" post a bit more 'correct' by attributing it to Mike Reid, who wrote it and another favorite of mine "Walk On Faith (Trust In Love)". He was a CBS artist in the 1990s and is mostly a Christian writer (I am spiritual but not Christian by choice, though I do attribute importance to the historical man, not the myth so many worship) whom I enjoy for his strong melodies and groundedness. I haven't heard much from him in the past decade. He probably is doing quite well with " I Can't Make You..." certainly a career-song, so to speak.
Duncan: Though it is often the case that popular versions can make the question of "original" difficult, in this case, the issue is moot: While Reid did indeed write the music, Raitt's recording came out first (1991, as vs. 1992 for Reid). As such, though authorship is certainly an interesting informational tidbit, it is perfectly correct to attribute the original to Raitt.
In defense of Duncan here's an example: There have been a few Patty Griffin songs recorded by the Dixie Chicks and others, prior to Patty releasing them on her own, yet they are very much Patty Griffin songs? No? You would piss off quite a few Patty fans in calling them Dixie Chicks songs? Same as Gillian Welch who has had her songs recorded by Emmylou Harris prior to releasing them on her own.

What prince-o3-tour would be better in my opinion would be to remove the wrist straps and the skin, and instead make it a 2 babolat pure drive, 2 steering wheels, 1 baseball bat and 1 golf club. Still, this package is great value for your money. When my wife informed me that Emporio Armani was now pushing its own signature wilson k six, the EA7, I’ve got to admit, I was intrigued. Italian designers producing tennis rackets? How fashion forward of thstrong. I love it. head microgel is style and performance at cheap tennis racquets best. Haute couture meets the hard courts.
