I don't know if it's because I'm procrastinating overly much today, if I'm just in a dark mood or what, but this rendition of Jack o' the Shadows from Robert Jordan's Wheel of Time series is haunting me since I first heard it earlier. At first I didn't care for the muffled (I'm sure there's a better word for it but I can't think of it at the moment) voices that are a bit hard to understand, but it's grown on me and I now think that it's a great job. And I think the ebook cover featuring Mat is the perfect backdrop.
A song of death haunting me while I'm trying to meet a deadline isn't a good sign is it? I need more sleep.

It kind of sounds like it is being sung by pirate ghosts under water... but in a good way.
Kinda reminds me of Tom Waits
I'm terrible at coming up with tunes to go with songs in books (which is why the audio versions of Lord of the Rings are so good), plus Mat's become one of my favorite characters, so this is great! Thanks for sharing.
