My Search for the Peace of God

In the movie Pitch Perfect, actress Anna Kendrick graces us with a great cover version of the a capella folk-pop Youtube sensation “You’re Gonna Miss Me” (originally sung by the band Lulu and the Lampshades). With only her voice, hands, and a cup, she more than does the song justice. It’s awesomesauce.

Cups – by Anna Kendrick

I’ve got my ticket for the long way ‘round

The one with the prettiest of views

It’s got mountains, it’s got rivers

It’s got sights to give you shivers

But it sure would be prettier with you

 

When I’m gone, when I’m gone

You’re gonna miss me when I’m gone

You’re gonna miss me by my walk

You’re gonna miss me by my talk

Oh, you’re gonna miss me when I’m gone
