A cover of John Prine’s beautiful ode to a slightly off-kilter kind of loving relationship.
Prine originally released "In Spite Of Ourselves" in 1999 on his album of the same name. Just as Viagra Boys’ cover features the Australian singer Taylor, the original saw Prine link up with Iris DeMent.
Where the original is characterised by its folky lilt, Viagra Boys’ rendition begins at a livelier tempo, before mellowing into a breezy lo-fi affair.
