Patrick James is one of my favourite Aussie singer-songwriters, so when I saw he’d covered The Church’s Under the Milky Way I just had to share it with you.
It’s a tender respectful rendition that should please music purists and encourage more people to check out the talented Aussie.
What do you think of Patrick’s take on The Church?

The Church are celebrating the festive season, and 30 years in the business, with some very special shows this month.
The Future Past Perfect Tour will see the band playing Untitled #23, Priest=Aura, and Starfish in their entirety.
These three albums weren’t selected by chance. The discs are each drawn from a different decade of The Church’s illustrious career. What an amazing opportunity for fans to hear all those album tracks they love that rarely make the set lists!
Tickets are available from the venues for the following shows.
11 December 2011 – Waves, Wollongong
17 December 2011 – The Enmore Theatre, Sydney
23 December 2011 – The Powerhouse, Brisbane (SOLD OUT)
