The Hot Rats - Damaged Goods

[noligsky]

wow. now i've gone off the original. that wasn't even in the 'so bad its good' category. what pointless twaddle.

[dajefka]

Degeu

[squatters1]

OI WILLY FUCKIN WONKA!!!!! Fuck off & stop doin shite modern 'Indie' covers of decent l8 70's Indie songs!

[robertomifano]

sounds good, but nothing on the original.

[lilcutewolf]

Seeing these guys supporting Foo Fighters with Biffy Clyro and Jimmy Eat World.

Should be pretty good tbh :3

[GazCoombesFan1]

YUM!! Gets better each time I watch it!

[SilentEcho33]

shite version 

[keveth1]

never had the chance to see supergrass live,but got my tickets to Hot Rats support the Foo's.....roll on July!!

[naxr1234]

Going to see the Foo's @ MKB on the 3rd of july, hadnt heard of the Hot Rats before I looked at the support, theres a different kind of sound looking forward to seeing them :>

[Alliworks]

how gorgeous does gaz look in the second half of the vid, all dressed up in white :)

[thumby1212]

Of course Gang Of Four's was better... When bands cover songs THIS famous, they're not trying to beat it, they're trying to put it under a different light, and this band succeeds at that if nothing else. The different lyrical style was interesting and it otherwise remained faithful to the original music. Well done.

[heythere9285]

good cover, but the original is better. gang of four was possibly the best punk band ever.

[GlitteryBlack]

***********SUPERGRASS FANS************

Lets get Supergrass to Number 1 in the UK - follow the group on facebook for more info

[jmejia73]

I like both the original and this cover. This song is contagious. I have listened to this about 10x in a row already....

[jmejia73]

I haven't heard the original but this cover is contagious. You might not be sure you like it at first, but then you find yourself craving a second-third-fourth.. listen.

[F1CO]

this is pretty good, however i prefer the original :/

[moonuk]

Yea, this just aint happening!! PANTZ!!! Wotcha gonna do next??, get Pearl into it, might be a vit betta!!

[Tigergruen]

but they cover very good!

i love it.

[hawaiianrobot]

what is this fucking shit

[ludvik199t]

why to they only do covers?

[Profector2]

who does that sound like right at about 2:40? Sounds like an old 70's song, but I cant put my finger on it.

[DoogeMeister]

I thought it was quite good. I loved the Gang of Four version when it came out.

The album they have put out is a nice mix of styles. Don't know why folk are being so negative about them though! I was never a Supergrass fan but was impressed by this project.

[brianmccabe]

listen sally sensitive. i know insulting people over the internet is a "big deal" to you. so much so that you took the time to teach me a lesson. please get off the internet if your going to be a pussy.

[1lipsfan]

Great cover and great album. FU all you negative people!!

[kanarie666]

True!

[gestell]

an abomination...but what do you expect from supergrass

[brianmccabe]

What kind of arrogant bastard make a music video for a cover song? horrible music video, has nothing to do with the song.

[ochewbac]

I'll tell you what kind of badass would make a video for a cover song....someone that appreciates good music and wants to have fun. Life is short dude, do something more productive with your time than insulting people facelessly on the internet. Breathe and enjoy life, like Hot Rats!

[Zalbun]

Yeah... this is much, much, much, worse than the Gang of Four Version. Basically a disappointment.

[SammyBoyEEE]

Damn this is a really kickass cover

[gagawka]

wtf

[guen1251]

Just horrible

[lorenns]

Yesss Gang of four

[EECIEI]

hey its the caveman from the geico commercials

[afterbirf]

this sucks worse than gravity. gang of four do it well, this is just terrible.

[1h05]

Sorry but this version realy sucks.

[angrynorway]

@1h05 This is about 20,000 times better than Gang Of Four. I can see what they were trying to do but I think the Hot Rats bashed it into something more like a song.

[1h05]

Gang of Four made a Punksong, they just made a Pop-Song. Thats the whole difference. The GoF Version is more agressive, this is like having coffee on sunday with your grandmom.

(sorry for my poor english)

[DirtyDSam]

it's sad when i see on of my favorite band slide DOWNHILL

[jiannis72]

wtf

[FoxNewsMustDie]

gang of four.

[julietavalon]

gang of four rocks.

this on the other hand, sucks.

[vFromVeronica]

this version is better! <3

[KrisD]

yeah, this fucking blows.  nice work hot rats you twats

[julietavalon]

id totally fuck the guy in white (the vocalist i guess) but they have ruined a great song

there just is not enough passion and enthusiasm here, sorry

[angrynorway]

They really turned a tired dirge into a great song! I like Gang of Four but they never really nailed this song like these boys..

[phantomguyHHrfan]

i like the real song better but if i hadnt heard it i would love this one...i still like this one though

[crushfo]

FUCKAODFJADFHDASFADFDA, WHAT!!!!!!!!

This is a flaming piece of shit!, Total takes gang of fours original riff and defiles it with some 14 year old vocalists shit!

[SmashJohnsGtr]

@crushfo

Please explain. I hope "14 year old vocalists shit" is your attempt at humor.

[crushfo]

@SmashJohnsGtr

No, its my attempt of accurately conveying what I'm hearing, He sings like he is from australian idol, and what the fuck is with the film clip? To say that the "Hot Rats" have no clue what they are singing about would be putting it nicely

[seekthetruth6006]

fuck the hot rats

[pollofumahierva]

original s better

that sound dumb

[pglhpglh]

I dunno why theyve made this acousticy. thats like drawing a moustache on the mona lisa

[julietavalon]

haha nicely put:D

[stonerkitten]

could anyone link me to the original gang of four song??? I can only find live performances.. I want the recorded version!!!!!!!!!

[manvica]

mataron la cancion u.u

[MyGirassol]

Gaz's facial expressions are hilarious and his rings are awesome.

[splunge4me]

Just makes me love them even more. Danny looks good in lacey things. ;)

[MySuperstar23]

cooler song!! :]

[mkmkmkmj]

dont like acoustic .like the vocals.rather listen to gang of four

[shakifer]

There seem to be about 42 million different bands with this name. One would think it might present a bit of a problem.

[mkmkmkmj]

hot rats?

[shakifer]

Yup. I had to wade through at least 3 separate ones whilst trying to find this one. I'm certainly glad I found it, though, cos I dig it. But still.

[jalenwantsrevenge]

I like the original better, I love this one too

[Mikespyke]

song sucks but the guys ugly monkey face makes the video funny

[kahloezer]

I liked this song!!!! loved!

Go to my favorites!!!!

[SpacehotelMusic]

crackin'

[stephaniedrury]

Amazing. I just can't say how much.

[tikidoll]

Hot dog! That's a fantastic video!

[callumdelaserna]

very very good.

I love Gang of Four and to see half of my favourite band cover it is lovely.

Bring on the Carling stage at Leeds this year

[nepathalia3]

awesome! thanks for posting this!

[angrynorway]

Good work as always Feathery.... This whole thing was so unexpected which makes it even better!
