Listen: Emily Edrosa - True Love Is Not Nice (Jonathan Richman Cover)
Emily Edrosa has unveiled her cover of Jonathan Richman's bittersweet track 'True Love Is Not Nice'. The song was originally laid down by the Modern Lovers-founder for the soundtrack to 1998 comedy film There's Something About Mary (for which Richman also penned the eponymous theme song). Edrosa's version of the track was slated for a Jonathan Richman compilation set to come out through US label That Summer Feeling, which has subsequently folded. So here it is for your listening pleasure...
