For anyone who is unaware, Madeleine Peyroux has covered a few LC songs, including Dance Me To The End Of Love, Bird on the Wire. Also Blue Alert and Half the Perfect World.(By Leonard and Anjani).

"Half the Perfect World" is also name of one of her albums.

In the notes on this album she writes "Dedicated to the crazy thinkers, my teachers:
