EDITORS: ORANGE CRUSH (rem cover)

[Noe191190]

the very best of Editors and R.E.M.

[steornhugh]

Lol! Putting in their own editorial emotions into it.

[Speedpig100]

WOW! REM could learn something from you guys. Vocals were great as was the drumming.

[Georgie6660]

man i thiink this ones betta thn the origional!!! :D

[marcoamedrano]

Damn, this cover kick serious ass.

[Emma199000]

best cover from editors by far!!!!

[kateybellew]

every time i hear him sing... all i can think is Ian Curtis.

[dhowellbassist]

@kateybellew Ian Curtis? Really? Why? Because of the baritone range? The guy from the editors can actually sing.

[ivorbigonee]

@kateybellew i concur. Ian Would have been amazing still. Just imagine.

[Mike1967b]

I am an editors fan, but even I don't think that Tom should have sang this one. The music is AWESOME! I would love to hear Michael Stipe singing over this version of the song, now that would be insanely good! BTW, Ed is one of the best drummers EVER!

[bklyntigr]

not good

[ratinfest]

Stipe and Smith both brilliant with this. If im ever present at a duo, heaven will have lowered itself to take me LOL

[fubar333]

awesome/10

[Kierkegaard42]

Smith is obviously trying too hard to imitate Stipe's vocal style. That said, it's still a very good cover.

[nickfromCO]

i dont think he is trying to imitate his style at all. this is how tom smith always sounds.

[mattaki]

@nickfromCO i saw them at a festival and the guy even rips stipe's hand movements.

[LoveIsNoise13]

loved the REM song...but this is also an amazing cover...well done Editors :)

I also like their Talking Heads 'Road to nowhere' cover aswell :) <3

[Quinn77Showtime]

Best cover I've heard of this song. Well done .. great vocals .. great all around

[metaslugx]

REM just was so bland with the song. This version, it's so much deeper. It's like listening to Motley's version of Anarchy, do much better...

[ToulacAxeHand]

Wouldn't call R.E.M.'s version bland at all.

The music was "of it's time"

[LangshottRangers]

@metaslugx You nonce. Bland? Are you serious? Hahaha you're comparing two versions recorded 20 years apart too. Nonce.

[LangshottRangers]

@LangshottRangers - And, i note, the Editors guy doesn't exactly hit the high notes in the chorus, does he? I am sure you Editors fans love them for good reason, but I just wish these constipated vocalists could hit some notes every now and then.

[rumalo]

this video goes to my fav list

[IRSALOMON]

Did they release this on an album anyone?

[D114BCW]

@IRSALOMON it was released on a b side but cant think of which one off the top of my head.

[andrewwright16]

@D114BCW you're right- its off Blood. :)

[JTiMo666]

saw them both at twickenham, it was fucking great

[Vaedi]

I think they covered it well, but it doesn't beat Michael Stipe's vocals.

[me1035]

hey guys, nice video. that is how you crack the world in two like a fuckin' eight ball, that is my league, go back to your mother's house. Be careful what you portray, capish?

[cyndyc100]

this is better than the original i think- you guys rock!

[ariannahiggins]

EARgasm!!! sorry thats my favorite new internet neologism.

[tuperonza]

Im' speechless... greatest cover ever!! very well excecuted guys!!! 5*

[Elderali]

Awsome!

[genyyaz]

i like 'it very much

[mazca]

Yeah, not sure about the intro at all but otherwise it's a nice cover. Singer sounds unnervingly like Michael Stipe in places.

[ToulacAxeHand]

They are influenced by the ol' Stipe-miester.

[DorifutoRabbit]

Was a bit unsure on the intro, but it sure did pick up! Good tribute to the original!

[clohur08]

Wait wait... oh there it is. cool
