nice cover of a nice song

The opening notes are similar to The Crystals song but it is different enough. "Blister in the sun" by the Violent Femmes starts with the same chords too but they sound very different.

Adorable! I love this song, I'm trying to learn it on guitar myself. :)

Has it ever been posted that Merritt stole the opening notes of the song from the Crystals "then he kissed Me'?

[Timmybear]

@sjddvm - I considered doing a medley of this and the Crystals song at a Bear event during Toronto Pride in 2004 - but then I didn't.

[kablamman2007]

You sound kind of like Stephin Merritt

[Timmybear]

Maybe just a HAIR too fast - but still good (and gotta give props to the beardy troubadours :) ).

[steeltownwheeler]

Wrong tempo for this song I think. Still sounds pretty good though.
