@freckle93 You are a PRICK! It's M O R R I S S E Y and his lyrics are genius. By offending him you are offending these American wankers who wouldn't exist if it wasn't for The Smiths.
In all honesty I adore Placebo, my favourite band ever, but it is true with British bands like the Smiths, Placbeo would be short of much existence, the reason bands cover songs, is because they mean something to them and have inspired this song.
And calling someone a fag because they called Placbeo fags, is hypocritical and ironic, I suggest you bunch of fools crawl back into your cess pits and learn that everyone has an opinion. Musically the Smiths are better and Morrisey is an amazing poet.
a guy that called me fuckface for preferring the original version of a song thinks that ***I*** am the one that sounds like an asshole. that makes about as much sense as listening to anything by placebo. enjoy writing your thoughtful comeback, buddy.
I love this version... is better... Smith's version is boring but this is amaizing... esta superchida como siempre Placebo supera lo que hacen otros... if ur opinion is diferent... fuck u...
are you implying that I don't "get" this version? it's some whiny guy that sounds like he failed a theater course and joined a subpar pop-punk band. this goes nowhere near the original, it might as well be a totally different song.
haha thanks for the laugh bro, it sounds like you were crying while you wrote that. what's it like being deaf? without bands like the smiths, placebo would have never existed. truth hurts, right?
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
First of all, no I was not crying you fuckhead.
You can do all you want, walk around calling a great band fags (and I'll have you know one of them is a homosexual) and saying Molko is a horrible singer, but I bet you he's had more women than you and your fag mates combined.
And I doubt Placebo needed the Smiths in order to exist as a band. In order to make this song? Yes, but in order to be a band? No.
I do like the original but I like this one better...both versions have something unique and I think this one has a harder sound, maybe more loved by the Placebo fans...
What is wrong with you people. .. of course it´s not going to be better then The Smiths version ... because it´s a bloody cover for f**ks sake..... but its pretty decent.
Placebo can't replace the Smiths version. But I find this to be a really great cover. It has a new sound. Placebo brought their sound of music into this cover. And I really enjoy it.

Why do people insist on saying things like "killed a good song" its a fucking cover someones interpretation, the originals still there so go listen to that, i like this version but i think the smiths version is better
he made them look like queers. well...molko's bisexual and steve is gay but still it looks as if ther just all gay. some of the pics not bad though. best song
HOLY SHIT...I love Placebo for their whiny quality (displayed here perfectly). What I cannot wrap my head around is why the fuck Placebo would think they could pull off a song that was clearly not meant for their...*particular talents*...
WTF!! I checked this out because a comment on the Smiths video said this was good! WTF was that person thinking? What was Placebo thinking? Oh, yeah they weren't. This SUCKS! What a waste of my time!
This is horrible, has this guy hit puberty? Honestly? His voice is awful, not only is the singing bad, the music can't hold a candle to The Smiths' rightful version. Listen to this version, and you will literally get a couple laughs.
WHAT??This is much better than the original. Well, I love Placebo, maybe you love The Smiths, so it´s logical that you hate this. But it isn´t shit! Brian Molko's sweet voice fits incredibly with the song and it makes it very emotive and...well, that, it isn't shit, it´s just perfect.
Oh. My. God. Jesus Christ. What an utter abomination. His little nasal voice cannot even touch Morrissey's. What a weak, pathetic attempt to cover an utterly great song. Hideous.
Hmmmmmm I am sorry brian molko But Morrisey is impossible to imitate... you are very good but Morrisey is simply the best....... This cover is very bad.......... And I also prefer Johny Marr´s guitar.... of course.... The smiths still better than placebo.....
I sincerely prefer this version to the original one.
