Come around for tea, dance me round and round the kitchen

Bic Runga - Election Night.

Apart from being super-appropriate for this week, this is probably my favourite song off one of my favourite albums of all time - maybe my very favourite. Download it, you won't be sorry.

Drive me miles away,
escape the skies that we lie under
of all the dreams we cannot shake
we're always shaking in our slumber in the car
Don't let me fall asleep.
I might leave my heart
here on your vinyl seat.

And the sound of the city's now long gone
In the silence of the park, and every darkened cinema
Feels a little change is coming on...

It's my favorite too, and my favorite to cover as well. It's really easy to make it totally my own and still have it sound good -- I usually play it with percussive guitar and really pedaled piano and it sounds really cool.

Yeah. I am filled with love for this song and I bet it sounds great in the arrangement you describe!
