If i was here when this happend, i would cry and dance and cry somemore. Favourite band covering my all time favourite song. -dies- Thanks for uploading
@jadegizmo pointless comment, i like it this way,most people do, i don't think you hav to try and sound like ian when you cover these songs, it just comes out because its such a massive part of the sound, ians voice was as much of an instrument in his music as Thoms is in his music therefore it would have ruined the song in my opinion to sing it in Thoms voice for radiohead tracks.
@dashofchutmeg too bad. i've never heard of her in the states, but it will be hard to overcome the nasty taste you've placed in our mouths. are all her fans haters?
There's a band on tour right now from Champaign Illinois that does a FANTASTIC cover of this. They're called Elsinore...and they blew us all away in Philly last weekend.
Hey Thom, why no R.E.M. covers? Oh CAUSE THEY SUCK. Glad to see Thom at least has SOME good taste in music other than that no-talent faggot fronted REM.
I'm sorry if i'm a little bit obvious but i just love the fact that they played a different version than the album one. It sounds to me more like the John Peel sessions version and that's great, cause everyone knows Joy Division through this song and it doesn´t really show what Joy Division was like, the Peel version was more truer to the Joy Division sound IMO
I cried. It made me that fucking happy.

@BritishNo3 Flea actually uses a pick occasionally with RHCP. Check out videos of them playing Minor Thing and Don't Forget Me.

This sounds so weirdly like Ian Curtis in a way... he doesn't even sound like himself. Great great cover... best cover of the song so far.

Though I'm a sucker for his falsetto voice, I love hearing sing in low octaves like this, as Wolf at the Door is my favorite song by them.
