Outstanding version of an Australian classic

Died Pretty's Everybody Moves is one of those songs completely emblematic of a time and place - specifically, late 1980s Australia. Which is why it's so great that Courtney Barnett and Dave Faulkner completely own their Australian accents in this rendition. They know this song is great by any standard - propulsive tempo, wistful lyric and pretty melody - but what makes it unique is that it's an Oz classic, so any cover needs to genuflect to its status in the Australian pantheon. They do that through their voices - subtly, but oh so well.
