Covers of Souvenir

I’ve run across a couple of covers of the 80’s synthpop classic Souvenir by O.M.D. I have a love/hate relationship with covers. They can either by fantastic or completely horrible. They’re rarely just OK. I found one by Brittle Stars and one by Amiina. I’ve posted about Brittle Stars in the past so you search for that post. Amiina is another really great band. They’re the strings section for Sigur Ros. Their album is really good too so I was really excited when I saw this cover. I dig it too. I’m not sure which one I like better. Which one do you like better?
