It took me a while to warm up to Kings of Leon; I initially, and on very little evidence, dismissed them as warmed-over classic rock. That may or may not be the case, but the ubiquity of their music on the playlists of the dives I frequent has overcome my suspicions and allowed for a grudging acceptance which, if it has not yet caused me to illegally download their last album, inspires at least a casual nodding and finger-tapping on the bar when one of their many samey-sounding songs comes on. (Talk about strong endorsements, huh? Regardless of how all that sounds, I do like the band.) Anyway, via Idolator, here's an acoustic cover of their "Use Somebody" by the band Paramore, a group about whom I don't even know enough to have any visceral disdain. Maura Johnston praises the tune's vocal, and she's absolutely right: Lead singer Hayley Williams takes a track that is already heavy with melancholy and adds an entire new layer of longing. Welcome to autumn, everyone; this is how the season's going to feel.
