Listen: Motionless In White premiere cover of The Killers' 'Somebody Told Me'
Another Covid-19 project from the band
Pennsylvanian metallers Motionless In White have premiered their cover of The Killers’ 2004 song ‘Somebody Told Me’.
Staying true to the synth-heavy original but with a rockier edge, Motionless In White’s eponymous frontman Chris Motionless says of the cover: “During quarantine we wanted to continue to see what new projects we could push ourselves to create.
“We’ve always wanted to take a shot at covering an iconic alternative song, and ‘Somebody Told Me’ has always been one of those tracks that oozes pure energy, and has crazy good hooks that we felt we could transform into a great rock version.
“We are very happy to present this cover as one of the projects birthed out of the Covid down time and hope it’s fun for all fans to check out and tap their feet too."

The ‘Somebody Told Me’ cover comes less than a month after Motionless In White released their four-track EP 'Another Life / Eternally Yours: Motion Picture Collection.’
Produced by Justin Deblieck and mixed by Steve Sopchak, the EP features two reimagined versions of two fan favourites ‘Another Life’ and ‘Eternally Yours.’
Motionless In White said last month: “With all of the downtime of not touring, we wanted to take the opportunity to try something we’ve never done before,” the band say. “We give you, Eternally Yours: Motion Picture Collection (Feat Crystal Joilena) and Another Life: Motion Picture Collection (Feat Kerli).
“Thank you to Crystal and Kerli for your amazing vocals that helped transform these versions into something truly special. Thank you to Justin Deblieck for your ever-brilliant talents that shine so bright throughout these tracks, and thank you to Steve Sopchack for your keen ear and dedication to mixing this project. We hope you all enjoy and are still staying safe out there.”
