@recluta123 WOW! Then why did you even come to this page. . .? You have horrible taste in music and you should go suck NOFX's balls yourself to make up for the distasteful comment that you have posted. . . shame shame
Free energy can change the world!But the Oil coporations life depends on covering this up,Find this technology at LT-MAGNET-MOTORdotCOM ,Start the energy revolution!
a great man (or any chinese industrial) said: "to cover someones work is the highest respect you could give him".
but besides that: both versions are just to different to compare. on a quiet morning hour or while reading a book i would always prefer omd. but with 2 promill on a saturday evening in some little club with a band on stage... definitly this version.
So I was watching the original video and I saw many comments of this version, can't say is bad but they're just so different. The guitar riff here was well done but I still like the original more.
Both are awesome, I enjoy this version very much because NOFX is probably my favourite band, and it has much more energy, but I also enjoy the original, plus the drums in the original are much easier to play along with. lol :D
@LaynezWorld You gotta be kidding... OMD is a great band since 70s, and this nofx just had to take their song. The original is way better than this shitty "rock" version
Yes this one song PROPELLED NOFX INTO THE WORLD OF FAME AND FORTURE AFTER NOFX STOLE IT FROM SOME 80'S BRITISH ELECTRO BAND 18 PEOPLE HAVE ACTUALLY HEARD OF.
Pretty sure this song is on 45 or 46 songs that weren't good enough to go on our other records, shows much they thought of it.
@marcorants Yeah it's a good cover, you should check out the original as well though if you haven't already, by orchestral maneuvers in the dark. they were doing stuff with synths back in the late 70's and early 80's when it was relatively new. It's defiantly worth a look
this song is great reminds me of my skating days when we would go around to all theskate parks and skate the days away listening to music and being loud and hanging out
OMD vid sent me here... Must say.. this isn't bad.. but they raped the great atmosphere the original had...

I remember listening to a loveline episode years ago with fat mike on it, and Dr. Drew kept telling them to play this song.
He was eager to hear it, perhaps as an OMD fan.
