This week in indie artists covering '90s songs we love: Haim -- the trio of sisters who specialize in folk-meets-smooth-R&B -- did a cover of Sheryl Crow's classic '95 hit "Strong Enough" for Australian radio station Triple J. And, not surprisingly, it's great. While the original video of Este, Danielle and Alana performing the song was taken down over the weekend, the audio survived. HAIM's version of "Strong Enough" takes the simple acoustic guitar strum of the original and injects some synth and a healthy dose of guitar riffs. Danielle emulates Sheryl's vocals really well and the whole cover does a great job of making you feel hopeful and raw, and also of being such a jam. HAIM's new album, Days Are Gone, will be out September 30th.
