  • Yea i really want to put fancy words into my comment as well so i can get that feeling that i achieved something today.

    So i can go home to my misserable life and hopefully it wont feel so misserable..

    No wait, thats your story im telliing .. sorry FREAK

  • Not sure not being able to hit the notes in a song makes him a cunt... i have to disagree anyway- he put his own twist on the song and he makes it work. Just my opinion

  • agreed :)

  • This sucks a little bit...

  • adonde mierda esta mi mente!

  • this cover sux Dragon Ballz

  • if you take a step back and think about it.... James blunt is one of the few I can think of which has the voice to do a good cover of this song. believe me. I hate his songs, but it is true

  • at least its not as bad as placebo

  • this really sucks!!!.....

  • AWESOME i love james blunt <3

  • People like james blunt shouldn't be allowed to ruin songs like this

  • WHHHYYYYYYYYYYYYYY??? Stupid fag covering such a great song.

  • back vocals suck, guy sounds like he's getting fucked in the ass

  • james blunt sounds like a dick singing

    Pixies should never be covered

    James Blunt sucks so bad

  • the pixies !

  • I liked the 1 in "fight club" better.

  • It lacks the passion and intensity of the original classic. This song should NOT be covered!

  • so gay cover!!11

    ONOTOLE NEGODUE!

  • this sucks ...

  • like the original better

  • um well placebo... yeah thats ok. james blunt. no. ruined

    BLUNT THE BESTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT

  • shit!!! w pixies and placebo!

  • he breaking the rythm to much. its not the same song anymore. anyone agree?

  • James is very good singer !

  • James, your sad songs do it for me .. this does not ... leave it alone Pixies rule!

  • OMG How dare you!! You SOB!! You're not fit to basque in the steam off Frank Blacks wizz. Die JB. Die.

  • please...kill yourself!

  • Worst performance ever...

  • Why James, why

  • I think you all are being a little hard on James. Frank is not an easy act to follow. I appreciate anyone who sees the beauty of this song. Ask yourself.....can you do better?

  • best song for me. but the pixies version

  • fuck this shit! its horrible. he just ruined my favorite song (#3 top fav of all time) and now i feel like shit...thanks alot

  • dont feel like shit mate, just put the real one on and revel in it!

  • Original PIXIES only, no wonder your name rhymes with c***!

  • his fucken voice even ruins THIS song.

  • omg how gay is this shit.

  • Comment removed

  • Comment removed

  • this is crazy.

  • no! u dont right. i like her music style :)

  • the best cover is from placebo....!!

    the pixies version is also nice =)

    but this version is big crap

    peace out dudes...keep on rocking

  • this sounds sooooooo bad

  • Ugh.

  • Why do these 'pop' artists insist on using great songs and dulling them down. There's this, Leona Lewis' version of Run by Snow Patrol and All Saints murdering Under The Bridge.

    I am however a fan of Placebo's live effort with this song.

  • he should have sang the original version, the part ,,where is my mind,, <--he could have sang this very very well, but this versino is 2 soft

  • OMG this is horrible!!!

  • como se atrevió ste popero del infierno????

    jamas igualará al cover d placebo =/

    que basura!!

  • sorry lads and lassies but get over yourselves yeah. for a start, the pixies sign off on al there song's being covered, they have total control over there back catalogue, and if you think the placebo version of this tune is awful why the hell did frank black perform it on stage with placebo in france. i'm guessing he is cool with them doing a cover of the song and who the f$&k are we to disagree

  • OMFG....this is the worst cover ever...hahaha

  • Haha. Listen to the Placebo cover. THAT one butchered the song.

  • are you serious? please say no. please.

  • hah. yes.

  • i don't think he actually knew who the pixies were when he did this did he? the nob

  • it's OK. Another version a great song. Another artist, another style.

  • cunt

  • This is horrible. They butchered this song.

  • you're pitiful

    you're pitiful, it's true

  • haha there's always one cunt who ruins it for everyone.

  • james cunt , bastard, u ruined the song

  • perfect...

  • this is awful..

  • he didnt say coi koi :(

    and the solo sucked when these guys did it

  • murdered it !!!! i hate u blunt

  • Blunt,where was your sick mind when you where occupating southern Serbian province of Kosovo i Metohija? You are so stupid, I feel so sorry for you!

  • i normally dont like him but i think he wasnt that bad, although i wouldnt listen to it a scond time as long as there is the original version!! dont hate, just listen the version you like best and stfu.....

  • really, really bad. Even musicians don't know the tune .

    The lead guitar solo makes laugh :-)

  • sooo gay!! BOOOOOO!!

  • DAMN that is more a shame i can ever tell.. who the fxxx is that idiot ruining such a great song.. shame on him

  • what a shame to original

  • ok i take that back just heard pixes 1988....they just have the edge .....only just but id buy em both ....its the best song ever made i think.....

  • its just as good ....fukin well done blunty

  • THIS ROCKS Just as GOood as original to me...I love James Blunt...great voice and very talented...what do people expect, he's going to put his twist on it, or else he'd be a copy cat

  • Ah lala la voix de canard ...

    sur le coup il detruit un peu l'esprit du morceau ... version aseptisée

  • not that bad, pretty good eh?

  • I liked it, but I just LOVE the Pixies! :-) We can't expect it to sound the same...that would be boring.

  • cunt.

  • to all the people bashing this version and James Blunt... what did you expect!? he most certaintly wasn't gonna make a better version of the original song... thats a musical impossibility (and that goes to all cover songs)... you should take the fact that he is a big fan of The Pixies... and that this is just a tribute to them, by making HIS own version of THEIR song... may not be as good... but i liked the effort lol... xD

    PS: I am a fan of BOTH The Pixies and James Blunt xD

  • It sucks. He kill the song...

  • To my MIND! this sucks ass :D

  • I wasn't expecting this....

  • this is so boring, but is only my opinion XD!!!

  • the first 13seconds were good, then, there was no explosion into the actual song. then, when this noob actually attempted to sing the song, my world died. sorry, but this sucked balls

  • que cagada de version!!! madre de dios! es mejor que siga en su estilo no descuartice grandes temas como este de los pixies!

  • pixies rules

  • For fuck sake, you guys are right this is shit, he's butchered the original. Pixies yeahhhhh

  • he kill the song ...pixies 4ever

  • this sucks

  • this isn't that bad, he has the voice necessary to sing this song. but like all covers, the pixis just do it better

  • rofl

  • i dont really like this cover, but he still did a good job, just that i dont really like hes voice i guess =)

  • I've seen better covers from teenage garage bands. This isn't suppose to sound like a 60's hippie folk song.

  • Pixies fan you should play it on the Basque people who made me lose my mind.

  • what an insult to the pixies

  • yea he copy any songs but his performance is really good in lovely/chilled songs or not?

  • Fuck you, James Blunt. Leave the music to the REAL performers you piece of shit. I understand why you want to copy, though. You cannot write your own fucking songs with any sort of success.

  • whoa whoa calm down man! I think he's shite but let's face it he likes a damn good song. Also he does a better cover than 90% of the people I've seen. including fucking placebo.

    never thought I'd have to stick up for james blunt...

  • Yea, haha. I am sorry to put you into this situation. However, I am pretty hard into The Pixies, so this is rough for me. Later

  • placebo's version is better in all the aspects

  • The Pixies version is the best in ALL aspects.

  • I don't get you people, come on, this is pretty good!

  • I don't like this guy but this isn't that bad.

  • much better than original?..are you sure?

  • James Blunt sucks...and this is pure blasphemy... may an andalusian dog eat your balls...

  • I am un Chien Andelusian but I'm not going near this prick

  • that was not very good..

  • i loved it!!

  • total disgrace. the song has lost its meaning with that performance.

  • Me encanta este cover, es muy buen cantante. Lastima que no pueda verlo este mes en Chile, y lastima que haya venido con Elton John... <.<

  • can i stab the man in the background making the stupid high pitched"oooooooh" noise?

    this would be gorgeous if it wasnt for him

  • the song is actually really empty without it.

  • oh i know.. but james's blunts voice is capeable of holding the song on its own. if he removed it he could more or less turn the song into his own, instead of just being a cover.

  • pixies and placebo ftw

    james blunt keep to your own territory

  • Muuuuch better than the original.

  • OR NOT

  • Pure shite, this man is terrible.

  • es una mierda

  • OMG...he killed this song...YOU BASTARD!

  • He's COPYING A SONG! Come on people! What's so great about that? Why should this be applauded? Shouldn't we just listen to The REAL artists who actually WROTE this song??????The Pixies were a very talented, original, and ground-breaking group. James Blount is a RIP OFF with NO TALENT!

  • Doing a cover does not a rip-off make.

    Doing a shitty cover, however, does make you a shitty artist.

  • =( I don't like it. This song doesn't work with his voice. The guitar work was fine but nothing special.

  • he killed it.....

  • Personally i prefer his Traingle Song......coz he just butcherd a perfectly good song

  • no no no this is all wrong.... pixies version or even placebo version give me anything

  • it was decent up until the part where he does that jazzy thing wtf... that doesn't go with the mood of the song.

  • i wonder if people at the show knew who actually made the song lol

  • Thats a bit strong Blunt. Not beautiful. The bloke doing backin vox really should just settle himself down.

  • Dont really care for james blunt but at least he has good taste in music. This is actually a decent cover but alot of people will say it sucks because james blunt is singing it lol.

  • lol ok.........

    james blunt concert hippies sit on the floor

    knit some sweaters etc , do little claps

    pixies concert people are crowd surfing lmao

  • I'm not a fan of exact copy covers, but this cover especially doesn't work. Blunt wrote "you're beautiful," Black Francis wrote "she's like jelly roll, like sculpture." Blunt's head just isn't in the right place. Plus, this guitarist just can't touch Joey Santiago!

  • wtf?? only pixies, no one else.. :S

  • wtf james

  • this is pretty terrible. i never really liked you, blunt; and this only makes it permanent i'm afraid

  • kiled it.big time

  • oh dear!

  • Crumbs!

  • this is not that bad..

  • god jjjjjjjb blunt....... not a HUFW fan of the pixis.. but godamn, nice try.. let's keep it re3al n hgodnnnnmmmmm wtfever... (brought to you by booozzz) seriously... if u like the song /search pixies and keep it on thdl

  • where is his mind? The scale of his voice is small as his prick. :/

  • You would know

  • barf

  • shoot him please.

  • Can someone give me a reason as to how he killed the song? I think he did well for his COVER. Key word being cover in that he can do anything he wants to.

  • Estuve nadando en el Caribe

    Los animales estaban escondidos detrás de las rocas

    Excepto algunos pequeños peces.

    Cuando me contaban que el este es en realidad el oeste,

    intentando hablarme, coy koi*

    ¿Dónde está mi mente? ¿Dónde está mi mente? ¿Dónde está mi mente?

  • Con los pies en el aire y la cabeza en el suelo

    Intenta este truco y gira, sí.

    Tu cabeza se derrumbará si no tienes nada dentro

    Y te preguntarás a ti mismo:

    ¿Dónde está mi mente? ¿Dónde está mi mente? ¿Dónde está mi mente?

    Saliendo del agua, la veo nadando

  • i wanna be sick

  • not rally that bad...

  • I think it wasn't that bad, definitely not as bad as some of you are saying

  • nada surf did a beter cover

  • WHY?????????

  • worst cover ever.

  • yeah he killed the song

  • mato la canción!!!

    que se dedique a you are beautiful nomas...

  • oi fuckface.. horrible cover.. horrrible. shame on you.

  • I'm very open minded but this is aweful.

  • I have to agree, he pretty much changed the feel of the song with over-exaggerated vocals/accent(even if tho* he's british), and the major bridge around 2:18, aweful, unfortunately, although not entirely unexpected

  • Blunt you absolute fucker!! This has ruined my day. Now I have to attempt to erase this memory.

  • half the audience didnt know that wasnt there song, so horrible to make a good band sound bad. the only good thing about this guy is his last name is blunt

  • why lame bands try to cover good ones, i will never understand. stick to butchering your own damned songs.

  • boring peoples sitting and clapp their hands . this cover is such boring ! the original is 1000x better!!

  • It's a cover you r-tard. If it was exactly the same as the original - THEN It would have sucked. But when they're making their own version of the song it can sometimes be good as hell. Even if the original is better. For those who like this slow-fag-music - this is good. But for those who like faster - Pixies is better. Both do the song good

  • me gusta la interpretacion :)

    pero esta mejor la de placebo

  • O.o .... what the flip. turrrble!!

  • Osceno!

    I Pixies non erano così...una canzone della forza di Where is my mind è stata rovinata dall'ennesimo idiota che pensa di poterla rendere pop.

    Blunt: fai pietà!!!

  • Blunt is a shit musician. He butchered the song, or rather, bludgeoned it to death. He should cover Humperdinck or something safe to satisfy his whole limp-wristed band.

  • you know what the irony is though... his name blunt.. just though id point that out if it wasnt before :-P

  • nice try, but no, it would be like the beejees singing the stones.

  • disgusting

  • you suck. way to kill it.

  • blocks he's ruined it by trying too hard

    & is just a posh boy the guitarist is limp as fcuk

  • It's not as raw as the Pixies version, shut ya face James

  • i'm not really a fan of james blunt. nothing beats the original version by the pixies but this rendition isn't that bad (except for the wailing guy on the background). i give it a clap.

  • steaming shit is correct! die you talentless asshole!!!

  • This is a decent version of it. The Pixies definitely do it best, but I enjoyed this one too.

  • people need to leave this song to the pixies.
