Wilco's Jeff Tweedy and his family have been doing an amazing job keeping us entertained at home recently, and now Tweedy is helping us pass the time with an intimate cover of Talking Heads' classic track "Heaven."

Tweedy performed the cover during The Tweedy Show livestream earlier this week, and it finds him stripping the 1984 song down into an incredibly touching acoustic ballad.

Down below, you can check out the cover, which can be found at about the 51:05 mark.

Other highlights from the episode include solo renditions of Wilco's "Misunderstood," "I Am Trying to Break Your Heart" and "You And I," while son Spencer Tweedy joined his father to helped out during "Theologians" and "Summer Noon."

The entire Tweedy Show episode can be found below.

As previously reported, Wilco recently delivered their new song "Tell Your Friends."
