I think silly is the last word I would use to describe Sebadoh's cover of Pink Moon. The guitar take on the piano riff is just soaring and the tone is out of this world imo. I'd personally go with "ferocious" and "awesome."

I should clarify "silly", as it has nothing to do with the instrumental performance. Low Barlow screaming the chorus is... okay, that's not silly.

Yes, it's silly. It was silly when I first played it on my first ever radio show in 1993. It's still silly. That's not a bad thing. It's just... silly.
