If it puts a few coins in Nik's pocket it is all good. Sounds flat and the faster tempo works against the original lyrical structure. Sounds like a demo more than a finished recording. Are all of the dynamics taken out so it can be played better on headsets? Hard to explain the lack of it unless it is just some uncreative way to differentiate from the original. Other than that, it just kind of sucks.
funny, i'm at a a colleague's farewell party on a friday and out of nowhere tihs song came to mind so i logged on you tube hoping to find it and i did... drinkin red square,perfect time to be sittin by the desk
Great to hear the song in a proper manner but honey, the fact you bought the song on iTunes doesn't mean you own it, or the rights, they still can take you video off ;)

I like Placebo so much, but the spirit of original song is lost in this version.
But is great to know how different people undestands same song.

I know that (and it sucks) but that was just a humorous reference on the whole copyright thing, as if people won't download it illegal...
