Random Cover Song Thursday: Transit cover Semisonic’s “Closing Time”

Random Cover Song Thursday: Transit cover Semisonic’s “Closing Time”

Cover songs are like a box of chocolates; you never know what you’re going to get.  We here at Dying Scene love hearing punk bands do their own take on other band’s songs.  Sometimes they pull off amazing interpretations of old classics, sometimes they’re not much more than humble tributes to a fellow artist, and other times they’re just downright laughable renditions of otherwise great songs.  Good or bad.  Intriguing or mundane.  We’ll let you be the judge.

We have more Transit for you. This week, they are taking on the 90s hit “Closing Time” from Semisonic. Check it out, compare it to the original and pass judgment here.
