HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO CHRISSIE HYNDE OF THE PRETENDERS!

Chrissie was born on September 7, 1951, so we’re celebrating with a truckload of Pretenders covers. The Pretenders themselves, though, were known for some stellar interpretations–their first single was a cover of Stop Your Sobbing by The Kinks.

Happy birthday, Chrissie! Enjoy these covers! We’ll start with their classic Christmas song then, after the break, tons of great takes on Pretenders classics!

“2000 Miles” is a Pretenders-written Xmas traditional that’s become about as big as any other modern Christmas song. Here’s a few versions.
