Amanda Palmer - Oasis (minor key / major key version)

[knwh72]

You know, if someone who had never heard the actual song listened to this, they'd be horribly shocked... everyone laughing hysterically when she says she was raped and Melissa Mahoney was molested.

haha

[123456789rs]

Lol. Wasn't expecting this. But she is still amazing! Sounds good even as a sad song! LOL

[radiusnicetymeacd]

The song's fictional story deals with an Oasis fan and rape victim who has an abortion.

[2nitewepartay]

@radiusnicetymeacd yep. Srs Oasis fangirl.

Also, she's trying to show that it's okay to make light of these things, because people /do/ get over them.

[AvrilRockerz08]

i love the upbeat version but this is damn funny :D glad she started playing it

[TheStrawberryThief]

God she's perfect.

I'm on a total Amanda Palmer binge right now.

[Yohfay]

Yeah, the whole point of the song is the contrast between the upbeat music and the disturbing situation that the lyrics describe. That along with the irony of going through all that and ignoring it in favor of the fan letter to Oasis and the tickets you have to go see Blur in October makes the song interesting.

People were really upset with this song?

[cosmiccoolgirl]

This sounds nice, but the audience's noise is annoying

[alnpel]

the minor/major conversions do make a difference in the mood of the song!

[imnoturfuckingpuppet]

"this is so stupid, i dont like this version" hahaha "FUCK IT" XD love it love it love it!!!!!!

[xSnipSnipx]

That is soooo hilarious, I can't believe she sang it like this that's amazing, way to say fuck off to the people who protested her original. XD

[bbourke85]

so thats how you write an evanescene song, woop no wait it went major

[ryko26]

Do you have to be a lesbian to think this is good?

[JacksXmessengerX]

you dont have to be but the label on the back says its recommended.

long live afp. <3

[xSomeoneSaveUs]

"This is so stupid... I don't like this version!"

xD AFP ftw

[JoanIsNotTheMaid]

Lol, she was trying to adhere to the demands and attempted to sing the song sadly. lmao Yay Amanda! The song sounds much better upbeat!

[henobeno]

because i drank it so quickly :( OMG shes hilarious

[ZeroPointLibra]

its hilarious because thats how they WANTED this song to be. slowed down and taken down to a minor key so yeah i think she plays on that big time when she does this. ive often thought about tori amos covering this song and im fairly sure shed slow it down and use a minor key like she did with hit me baby one more time lol

[missjade29]

Oh my god... hillarious how she's trying not to crack up!

Much perfer the beach-boy-style version. Anyone who is offended by this, here's a tip: don't listen to it! People are getting far to offended by everything and anything these days!
