From NPR comes "The Green Album". where modern bands cover music from the Muppet TV series and movies. Here's the tracks:

1. OK Go - Muppet Show Theme
2. Weezer and Paramore's Hayley Williams - Rainbow Connection
3. The Fray - Mahna Mahna
4. Alkaline Trio - Moving Right Along
5. My Morning Jacket - Our World
6. Amy Lee - Halfway Down the Stairs
7. Sondre Lerche - Mr. Bassman
8. The Airborne Toxic Event - Wishing Song
9. Atreyu's Brandon Saller and Good Charlotte's Billy Martin - Night Life
10. Andrew Bird - Bein' Green
11. Matt Nathanson - I Hope That Something Better Comes Along
12. Rachael Yamagata - I'm Going to Go Back There Someday

Some are awesome, some are kinda "meh", but it's pretty interesting regardless.

Sounds kind of cool, conceptually.  I'll bookmark the link and give it a listen sometime this week when I need some extra background tunes to keep me company.  Thanks Wayena!
