The Mars Volta Candy and a Currant Bun

[AngelMTZ8A]

people that covers pink floyds songs are awesome!

[PatentApplied]

Sounding nice.

[LviaEsp]

Brilliant



[ChoirofWolves]

oh look, the singer trying to convince me he's not fucking annoying // oh look, we changed the lyrics because we're creative

modern music remaking 60s music is funny, even if you hit the target you miss the nail

[ctseneff]

These were the original lyrics dipshit. EMI made Barrett rewrite them

[waiting4thesun64]

~PINKFLOYD~ <3

[brennanyoung]

great version of an underrated pinkfloyd song

[NYsunRa]

one of my fav's by mars volta, this track is layered and delicious!

[almiester1234]

"i dont think syd would approve"

as if you know the guy. you'd have to know syd like a bro to know what he would approve or disapprove of. you're just going with your own opinion up your ass... but hell, im supposed to respect that, right? smh

[unclemeat2u]

this actually does sound very period.

It doesn't soud like Floyd, but it really does sound like a mid-sixties style of acid rock.

Listen, for example, to the band "the misunderstood" and thier song "Children of the Sun" and you'll see what I mean.

I found a video post of it here, somewhere.

The Dukes of Stratosphere (xtc) did an album called "25 o'clock' that play much in the same style as well.

[canthinkverywell]

@unclemeat2u haha i totally want to play in an acid rock band sometime! but i dont do acid so i'd just be a douche lol

[Markthompson123]

this is "lets roll another one"

[sigmundfloyder]

how the hell would any of you know what syd would or would not approve. You don't. .

[ThePeaceTurtle]

I don't think Syd was approve. A decent cover, but I think Syd would find that they're making fun of him.

[AdlejandroP]

I hate when people make comments like that

[lettrism]

@ThePeaceTurtle wow, you must be one of the lucky ones who met him. please, go on. what else can you tell us about him?

[renegade687]

its not supposed to sound like classic rock this is a new generation and a new genre. so grow up this is GREAT GREAT VERSION . covers dont have to song the same as original its better more creative that way

[gabogunnervr]

candy and a currant bun by pink floyd, it's a very funny song, loook at the lyrics.

this cover is very good, is funny, and ironic.

syd would aprove

[schnabby12]

agreed syd would totally approve hah

[happypurpleday]

en verdad son los mars volta??? wooow que buen cover de Syd

[sydbarrett1973]

he didnt say fuck, what's up with that?

[darksideof1]

very wildly and crazy and the Mars Volta. great cover....

[renegade687]

[DelMonteOnSteroids]

um candy and a current bun

[renegade687]

no shit i jsut didnt kow it was syd

[purplehaze0120]

I wonder if Cedric is the one doing the Roger Waters scream

[1blackguitar1]

probably. he does that scream a couple times in the song cassandra gemini.

[Toasterman7642]

eh, not as good as Syds, but good nonetheless

[tarantism]

the ikey solo part is dope...sheeit

[Refrescospepito]

This is a fantastic cover.

Syd would be pleased.

Let's roll another one!

[wolfmother27]

i dig this. i think the original version is better but i love the unique spin that the mars volta put together here. if you like this you should check out their cover of interstellar overdrive. its equally as good as this. :-)

[mikimob]

SHIT VERSION

[silentgnome]

Syd Barrett will always be one of the main influence on TMV

[ayoforyayo4]

its got the 60's feel. very syd barrett.

[neustrasni]

5/5 nice cover

[kevlshel]

This is the best of all the TBiG covers..hands down.
