My beautiful girlfriend dragged me took me to see The Time Traveler’s Wife the other night and much to my surprise I was greeted by Broken Social Scene performing a rendition of Joy Division’s song “Love will tear us apart”. And this wasn’t just background music, nope, the actual band was performing the song during the couples first dance at their wedding.

I have to say, this is a great cover of an already great song and the scene couldn’t have been filmed anymore perfect. The movie wasn’t at all what I expected and I would actually recommend you go see the film with your significant other. You’ll get brownie points for taking her to a chick flick, that actually isn’t a chick flick but a somewhat dark and edgy film that deals with a naked time traveling adventuresome librarian.

I’m sure having Broken Social Scene as your wedding singers is Brand’s wet dream but this might be as close as he ever comes to getting them to perform.
