[Video] The Maccabees – “Girl, You’ll Be a Woman Soon” (Neil Diamond cover)

You can say I’m a sucker for Neil Diamond covers. At Triple J’s studio, The British indie rockers of The Maccabees decided to put their own spin on the Neil Diamond classic “Girl, You’ll Be A Woman Soon.” Neil Diamond created a smoother style of music back in the late 60′s thats pretty hard to cover. The Maccabees make this song their own giving their listeners a refreshing take on the orignal. Building up the intro by Orlando Week’s fading falsetto, the band eventually picks up the tempo and with a solid bass percussion and lush guitar riffs. Delivering an overall short, but sweet cover of the song. Check out the performance below.
