In honor of Record Day this past Saturday, Franz Ferdinand released a 12″ of covers by a mix of artists.  According to Franz themsleves it is an “EP of covers of [their] songs by people whose music [they] love”.  Recently deceased LCD Soundsystem contributed this cover of 2009′s “Live Alone”.  In usual fashion James Murphy and crew made the track feel original by taking it and making it their own.  The Covers EP will be released May 2nd, see the tracklist after the jump.
