Give credit to XTC's original version and the man who wrote the song, Andy Patridge, lead singer of XTC. Do a search here on youtube and watch/listen to the XTC version. The opening verse is sung by a child - great impact. XTC is a band worth looking into for those of you who haven't yet.
Just listened to this on headphones; the printed lyrics are frequently at odds with the female singer's sung lyrics. I'd love to hear the story behind that!
@salvador67 It's off the album Vulnerable from 2003. A cover version of the XTC track from 1987. Me and my brother had a fist fight about which is better. This is.
It isn't "better" it just is. If you can't give credit to the person who actually wrote the song and brought it to the world, then obviously you don't know how to give credit when credit is due. At least Tricky did by paying tribute to it and making his version. You have no real appreciation for either - having a fist fight with your brother who preferred the other version proves it. No respect.
@jbugko …The fear being, of course, that implicit within his declaration was a rejection of the lifestyle and aspirations that we had thus far shared... Of course, we didn't really have a fist fight over it (an exaggeration for comic effect, forgive me), that would be almost as daft as an OTT attack on the throwaway comments of a stranger on youtube…
@jbugko The relationship between my (identical twin) brother and I is quite complicated and, although the pretext for fighting was a disagreement over which version of this song is better, I think that what really angered me (you'd have to ask him how he felt) was what his preference meant for our future relationship. It was some sort of aesthetic show-down and I was worried that he was PURPOSEFULLY rejecting our shared sense of musical radicalism for an outlook that I couldn't understand…

This is an ahmazing song...i remember when it first came out they banned it from the radio because of belief, but this song.......its so true and its kinda heavy. But great
Thank you. Your comment did actually make me lol. Whatdid you think they were trying to say? That Goatse is God (or vice versa) and he pooped out the earth?
better than original i think! great song!
