@flatline626 Nope.... You do whatever you want with a cover... then, people will like it or not. I'm a Smith fan but also a great Gorilla Biscuits/Quicksand/Rival Schools Fan... and I do agree that it doesn't sound like the original but the the way they play it is so intense that it doesn't matter if you almsot forget how the original sounds. Keepin the original mood is a lack of creativity and it's useless....
The old man (Walter) must really like this song! (the "old" comment is sarcasm also) his voice doesn't sound much different from Quicksand! Still pulling it off nicely! I just found out RS is playing Hamtramck, MI in October! Maybe it's just me but good shows around here seem far and in-between. I'm so stoked... saw them the last two times they played at Shelter 10 years ago. OCTOBER COME SOON!
no I meant what I said..all covers of the Smiths original are pretty much a yawner for me; including Quicksand's and Love Spit Love's versions, and this is coming from a very open minded musician who loves good covers. There just want much added to the brilliance of this song; style, feeling, or musicianship was not a standout with any cover I have heard so far..just mho.

They are just doing the Quicksand version of this song...a copy of a marginal copy.

@cdopa You meant to say: a marginal copy of a brilliant copy.

You mean completely melodramatic? They took this song and cut the length and melodrama in half.

Seems you guys were going for a hard rock cover of this and in effect lost alot of the mysticism of the song.
You guy's did a good job, but lost the best part of the song.
