Who covered this song?

Anyone remember the song 'They Don't Know' by Tracy Ullman?

Well, a couple of years back I ran across (on the internet) a cover of this song. I'd like to know a.) who did this cover and b.) where I might relocate this cover.

The things that I know:

a.) It was a performance. I believe it was like, on a talk show or more likely in a radio station... I'm thinking it was one of those radio show performances. I know the Decemberists have done them.

b.) It was one guy with an acoustic guitar.

c.) The guy was famous on his own. He was/is the lead singer/guitarist of his own (popular, I think) band.

defghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz.) It's annoying because I know the band I speak of. I mean, they're not coming to mind but I'm sure I like them and have several albums of theirs. I remember noting this when listening to the cover. Even so, the frontman (and his band) completely elude my mind at present.

    I don't think this is about games.

    Grr completely thought I was in H&A.

    Do I just PM a mod and request a move or delete this and start another? I guess I'll just delete. actually totally can't do that. PM I guess.

    You're probably thinking of Ben Gibbard's cover of the song.

    That would be it! (I'm almost positive, I'd still have to hear a copy of the song to confirm but my memory of his voice is now clicking with DCFC).

    Thanks much. Guess I don't even need that H&A thread now.
