Motown Philly's back again, this time in the Swedish hands of Jens Lekman. It's true, the silent one did a cover of Boyz II Men's "Water Runs Dry" a couple nights ago at Google Googie's Lounge as part of his "special guest" role for countrywoman and labelmate Frida Hyvönen .

Jens Lekman: Video: Jens Lekman: "Black Cab" (Live on "Black Cab Sessions")
