A cover of a cover? Well, yeah, kind of. See, Kim Carnes was, in fact, not the originator of Bette Davis Eyes, and yeah, we knew that, but did you? Donna Weiss and Jackie DeShannon actually "collabreated" to produce a fine piece of material back in 1974. But 2009 is where the song has new life breathed into it, courtesy of our favorite Chicagoans, My Gold Mask.


Pairing the inimitable chants of vocalist Gretta Rochelle with Jack Armondo's barely there arrangements, the duo have once again teamed up to make us shiver and swoon. After playing this version during their live performances, the response was so great, they decided to record it.

And we're pleased as punch about that.
