anna kendrick - cups (pitch perfect "when i'm gone")
with 11 weeks in the billboard hot 100 and selling almost 500,000 downloads, public demand for anna kendrick's performance of 'cups' in the cult smash 'pitch perfect' made everyone decide to re-record the track into a proper radio friendly single. reuniting with director jason moore, anna and her diner clientele bring the cup playing to a whole new level (and probably offer up the surprise hit of the season).
wanna see the scene where we all fell in love with the song?
