30 STM Kanye Fetish

I've been wondering for a while why 30 STM has taken such a liking to Kanye West. First of all, they did a cover of Kanye's song Stronger, but then they also had him record Hurricane with them for the This Is War Deluxe album. I guess those are the only things that lead me to believe they have some sort of Kanye fetish, but it's kind of strange. I'm not a huge Kanye West fan though so I suppose I'm somewhat biased.


Anyway, I'm going to post a couple songs. The first is Kanye Wests song Stronger. The second is 30 STMs cover of Stronger. I'm posting both of these because 1) the boys totally blow Kanye out of the water with their version and 2) I mentioned in an earlier post how 30 STM does amazing covers, and this is living proof. Then I'm also posting Hurricane feat Kanye West to support my "Kanye West fetish" theory.

Who Needs Santa Clause When You Can Have 30STM

That's right. 30 Seconds to Mars is coming to town and they couldn't have timed it any better.


So the guys are playing a show on New Years Eve in Vegas. It's going to be this huge thing; a themed concert, people are coming from all over the world to go to it and they have these special ticket packages in which you get to meet the band. But alas, I'm TRYING to save my money for when I move to Utah, and so I was devastated when the responsible side of me took over and told me I couldn't got to Vegas for this once in a lifetime opportunity. Not a day has gone by since they made the Vegas show announcement that I haven't thought about it, and dwelling on it has only made it that much harder. Then, just last night, 30 STM announced the first leg of their 2011 USA tour and what is one of the stops? SEATTLE! Home sweet home. I've found that once again the band has done something to lighten my mood. I may not be able to afford Vegas but I'm planning on being there front and center at the Paramount on January 18th. I'm even hoping I can convince Susan to come visit. What fun is a concert without your concert buddy?

Great Covers

One thing I love about 30 Seconds to Mars is that they do great covers. I personally think that they should do a cover of Journeys "Don't Stop Believin." Why not? Jared's already got the moves down.
