The A.V. Club recently partnered with Grace for its One Track Mind series, and as an added bonus after performing Against Me!’s “Pretty Girls (The Mover),” she did an acoustic cover of the 1982 Michael McDonald hit, using the beat from the Cure’s “Close to Me” as the rhythm section. Who knew the two worked together so well?
