(Blue Flower)
Originally made by the band Slapp Happy but Pale Saints did style their own cover of "Blue Flower" after the Mazzy Star version. It's on their album "In Ribbons". The german band Herrmann & Kleine has also made a cover of "Blue Flower". It sounds more like the Mazzy Star version then the original by Slapp Happy. It's on their album "Our Noice" (Morr Music; 2002).
