The Whigs, Liam Lynch and Chelsea Wolfe are the latest to join the growing roster of artists covering Eagles of Death Metal's "I Love You All The Time."
As part of the band's "Play It Forward" campaign, revenue raised from purchases and streams of the song go to The Sweet Stuff Foundation aiding victims of the November 13 terrorist attacks in Paris. Eagles of Death Metal (sans drummer Josh Homme) were performing at the venue that was attacked that day.
The new artists join the likes of Florence And The Machine, Savages, My Morning Jacket, Kings of Leon, Jimmy Eat World, Nada Surf and more.
"The Kings of Leon one, on a personal note, really captured what I'd wanted to accomplish myself on the song," Jesse Hughes told Rolling Stone in December. "It just really nails the Gerry Rafferty-Seventies sensibility, which is directly where I was drawing from on that particular song."
Everyone who tackles the song brings their own personality to the mix. The Whigs give a horn-drenched version of the tune while Liam Lynch really captures the soaring '70s style guitars. Chelsea Wolf is really the stand out from the bunch, taking an eerie and darkly optimistic approach. Using some spacey keys, minimalistic drums and some beautifully stacked French vocals, she has really stretched the bounds of the piece.
"I had no idea how eager and how sincere the response would be," Hughes said. "As someone who really, really needed this sh-- personally, I couldn't feel more accomplished in our goal. There's a lot of emotion behind this stuff for us, and I think it's an emotion that's bigger than words."
