This August, dreamy indie electronic artist Twin Shadow kicked off a new series of monthly releases called Under The Cvrs. As the name implies, Twin Shadow, aka George Lewis Jr., is recording covers of famous artists as suggested by his Facebook followers.

The first song to get the Twin Shadow treatment is 10cc's phenomenal love ditty "I'm Not In Love." Lewis Jr. conveys the same heartbreaking vibe as the original, accompanied only by his acoustic guitar. His version is very similar, with the mid-song breakdown of "big boys don't cry" retained, but when the vocals drop, they're woozy and saturated in synth before Lewis Jr. and his guitar return things to normal.

While sparse in production, it's the emotive lyrics of someone denying their love for another that really makes "Not In Love" such an 80s classic, with Twin Shadow's take a worthy effort.
