  • eeeeepic fail. tits on legs over euro disco beat is really the perfect screw for one of the worlds greatest song that a bunch of "white men" ever wrote. ( I am an european white ass). but for the purpose of getting some wankers boozed up and dancin' nacked on the dancefloor, it may work, nevertheless ;p

  • @digitalwasting I completely agree with you, but sadly, I think this is the best cover version of it I've heard yet. The stupid celebrity thing on global warming was at least faithful as a sociopolitical protest song, but it changed things about it and I found that annoying. And the other versions of it (disregarding the Nightwatchman's version) are completely horrible. At least this leaves the melody and lyrics alone.

  • Digggggggrrrrr

  • is that the eurotrip girl

  • genial

  • for disco=good,,,for listening=megashit

  • nice video

  • she is hot, who agree? thumb up!

  • get your own ideas..im a saporter of cover bands but not when they dont understand the meaning....

  • tres bonne toune

    

  • видеоряд с текстом как то не очень вяжется

  • these eyes......

  • Fake and gay.

    Srsly. Midnight Oil.

  • And my ears cried blood

  • es tema muy bueno me encanto nunca lo habia escuxado el

    grupo si es genial .... viva u. de chile

  • send this to Garret's office

  • just brilliant i loved it first time i heard it on mtv deutch 5 years ago and i still love it !!!

  • you cant deny that midnight oils version is better but this appears to a lot more different people than theirs... a 7 foot bald australian might not be everybodies cup of tea...

  • naja :D

  • c'mon everyone, this one is way better than the original, you wouldn't listen to the original at a party, everyone would just leave, but this is good for dancing and good to listen. my point is, who do ya think is "cooler", your aunt or your girlfriend, one is fresh and way awsome, the other one is the exact opposite. you choose, a party track or your mothers old favourite.

  • No way its better.

    If your an aussie youd know she destroyed this song.

    Sorry you cant beat Midnight oil.

  • sure, i was exadurating but you get my point, this has a great beat, and nobody would leave if ya played midnight oil, its just that i was trying to make a point ;), the original is good too

  • No everyone would leave.

    She doesnt know what shes singing about.

    And I dont think you get that its kind of rude that she doesnt know what shes singing.

    i bet you didnt know this song is about giving back Australia to the Aboriginals and giving them their fair share.

    Original is heaps better.

    Just because shes blonde and a girl doesnt make it better.

    And your point wasnt made because you cant beat Peter Garrett.

  • Oh and btw you would listen to the original at a party.

    Who would listen to this.

    its not a party track when there is no meaning to her version of the song.

    Plus its a known fact the original did better, and the original had pure meaning.

    Owned.

    What kind of "party" do you mean? You know a lot of funny people, don't you? I've never seen anybody leaving because of Midnight Oil. No, everybody was dancing and singing along. You can't compare Novaspace with a talented group like Midnight Oil. Okay, Novaspaces music is like a young girlfriend. But young girlfriends are often very silly. And so is the music of Novaspace.

  • IMHO it sounds like a pop dance remix version of the original Midnight Oil version

  • toll

  • I personally like this song. It's not "better" than the original - that's like comparing Dragonforce and Beethoven. The cover's pretty much moved the song into a different genre, much more techno than the original. Not everyone will like a more techno version, they don't have to. It's the same words, but a different song, so I'd expect different people to like it, instead of it just being "better" or "worse" .

  • aaarrgggh!!!!!

  • Jessy never song for novaspace..fake

  • as an Aussie, I like it, and I think she was brave to do such a song, and it's a good cover, but it fails in what IMHO a cover should try to do, and that is be better than the original, and I can't say that it is better.

    its a good song and cover, but is not great, it shocks me, not susprise me.

    I'd give it 3.5 starts out of 5.

  • I prefer this version to the original. I can't stand the original

  • why is that? its a good cover, but the original is a classic, and this cover doesn't beat it, its good, but it fails to bet the original kick ass version by midnight oil.

  • i dont care abt the song ... Jessica Böhrs is hot

  • What a rape of the original!

  • yupp this was shaite. I don't really care who she blew to get the music contract.but can she pleeese stop sucking now.this was horrible

  • Comment removed

  • I personally perfer the original version

  • me too

  • Who doesn't? :S

  • -empty Vee to pop- lol still remembering that:)

  • C'est pas pire, mais j'aime pas vraiment le vidéo. :P

    Mais on ne peut pas vraiment "massacrer" une aussi belle chanson... alors, toutes les reprises sont bien. x)

    It's okayy, but I don't really like the video. :P

  • Do they even understand the politics of this song?

  • No, they don't. They're not paid to understand politics of a song, they're paid to be hot and make catchy pop tunes, which they did.

  • @DarkLordKhaos

    Sure? They did? I don't think so. This is no catchy cop tune, this is shit. A rape of a classic.

  • @kingofpecos

    If you don't think it's catchy, your call, other people do. it's not a rape of the classic, it's a pop take on it. A cover doesn't have to be better, it's just different. Claiming that "anything outside of the original of something is crap" is something people do to sound like purists, but they usually just come off sounding snotty.

  • @DarkLordKhaos

    I respect your taste. But I don't like this kind of "pop". There are good coverversions. A-Ha's "Crying In The Rain" (Everly Brothers). They created something new, they didn't destroy the original. Bananarama's "Venus" (Shocking Blue) has the "original feeling", with 80's elements. A catchy pop tune. UB 40 made a lot of great covers. There are countless examples. So I'm not "snotty". And I'm not a purist. I just don't like this kind of partymusic. Happy new year from Germany.

  • I believe King is trying to say.

    It was written with a pure message.

    She doesn't know what shes singing about.

    I wouldnt be happy if someone who wasnt Australian sang it.

    It defeats the purpose.

  • 'The Bloodwood and the Dezza do'?? The Bloodwood and the Desert Oak are trees..Learn the lyrics if you are intent on murdering a Midnight Oil classic.

  • She said Desert Oak, she just held the word desert and merged it into oak, learn to listen if you're intent on trying to insult someone.

  • Lighten up Mr Lord, it's a pisstake. It's all Rock'n'Roll to me

  • I love this song =)) she is hot ^___^ and coll effects))))

  • This is played in the simuator at Xcape Braehead

  • Time after time was better in my modest opinion.

  • what a wasted song ! holly shit

  • Otro cover??? No mams

  • YES, but she asks some pertinent questions. I'm a professor of Philosophy and bullshit pop songs at Costcutter College Oxford, and I would give her a double first AS WELL AS a discount on her dairlea dunkers.

  • die stimme, einfach nur geil =)

  • @BlackRoses0410 du meinst die Frau aber die Stimme is supi

  • @BlackRoses0410 ja aber jessi hat NIE selbst gesungen!!..das war nämlich RITA OrLAndo... ;-)

  • godlike girl !

  • good remix of the original... and the video is also good... Novaspace makes cool tunes

  • casi tan buena como kate ryan

  • i like it up till 40 seconds, then it gets all fast, i like it more as a slow mood.

  • Black bomb a version best cover ever !!!!!

  • So sexy:)

  • orginal is the best but i like music with bass and tehcno in it :D nice to listen to his one in my car :D

  • Never did I imagine such a horrorshow could be made of such an amazing and RELEVANT song. I imagine the closest novaspace has ever gotten to political activism were providing recyclable vomit bags at their horrendous shows for ecstacy-ridden teenagers with no taste in good music. Now Johnette Napolitano of Concrete Blonde ALSO covered this song, and its quite obvious SHE gets it. Off yourselves, novaspace. You're a disgrace to this song and to the entire electronic music community.

  • I have to agree, I doubt they have ever heard of Torres Strait!

  • i got my arse fucked in the porch of a londis in roker.......service to say say it hurt.

  • only a reamake in kind of partysong. Where is the message of the lyrics in that video? Only dump jumping around and have fun and smile. No pic that belongs to the lyrics. Fuc k creepy partyvideo. wash your brain with that....

  • i love both versions but origonal totally

  • shes fine

  • I like this cover better than the original :)

  • I like the original and I'm not that of a fan of eurohouse but this is one neatly done cover ^^

  • geiler remix ;)

  • Jessica <3

  • She's better in movie like inEurotrip ;)

  • Haha, thank u!XD

  • This version sucks harder than a female pornstar sucks a cock...

  • you are right^^ absolut coll comment :D

    made my day^^

  • Nice chicks

  • love this version <3

  • I really like this song!! I didn't know it was being coverd.

  • There's no words for the horror. Please, please just remove yourself from this earth.

  • Wow... talk about completely losing the point of this song.  If I were Midnight Oil (or the Abbos), I'd be really pissed off that such a vapid and bastardizing remake was made.

  • song scheiße hin oder her, die frau sieht geil aus (das reich doch).

  • find ich auch..........^^

  • @gti5583

    Findest Du? Die Coverversionen nerven ziemlich. Da hilft mir die "geile Frau" wenig.

  • I guess it's about fifty fifty if people like this cover or not.

    I find it impossible to pick a favorite. I like this song and the original in two very, very different ways. 0-o

  • the cover sucks the original rocks

  • this is a horrible song. it sounds so shit. the original version by midnight oil is the best. F@#K off Novaspace

  • IN MY OPINION, BETTER THAN ORIGINAL

  • DISTROYED THE SONG

  • not the best version

  • holy shit... this is worse than if jhon howard sang it why would you even try to cover a midnight song when your a barbie doll this song actualy is about real issues not some madonna wanna be

  • this is a fuckin terrible cover... If u like this version go die please!

  • great song but from midnight oil is much better

  • i prefer peter garratt singing , but everything else the same including the dancing hottie.

  • oh no.... a horrible horrible cover. oh god.

  • thats lame i want the real version

  • It's a graet coverversion.

  • OK! To all you old faggots! If you love the damn original so damn much than why the fuck do you even boughter listening to this then? Please listen to your old faggot music and shut the fuck up!!!

  • I'm only 20 years old and I can happily say that I like the original way better, too, so it's not just old people that like the originals. People who actually have sophisticated tastes can obviously decipher classic from shite. Don't stereotype!

  • fags

  • omg, the original of midnight oil is so much better!! this version and especially the video is so featureless and trivial..

  • Liedverkrachting

  • I.m a man and i prefer to see this hottie singing than a bunch of cocks singing that song :))))

  • The original is better.. of course! But I like this version too..

  • i like the version of midnight oil more

    because i like classic rock.

  • Comment removed

  • This is like a metaphor for Peter Garrett himself!!!  Used to have some soul, now is just a commercial sellout.

  • Fick dich weg, du Homofürst!

  • How do u know,did you ever been in all 60countrys and spoke to all citizin?

    And of course the devil in person is stupid nazi germany you r so pathetic steriotyping a whole continent!

    I call that a racist!

    btw. the song is about the poor Aborigines that is nothing new - so what?

  • awesome dance song! like this!:)

  • Why make this sort of cover of this song? Unbelievable...

  • Da versteh ich die Leute nicht die das Cover von Black Bom A schlimm finden...das hier istt viel viel schlimmer!!!!!!

  • Booooo!

  • The more covers of this song, the better! There will be many people who have never heard the original but who like this and some of those people will seek out the original, discovering a fantastic band and maybe widen their horizons as far as music tastes go. When I was a kid, I heard GnR cover of Hair of the Dog by Nazareth, a band who I'd never heard of. I liked it enough to go buy the original and I was blown away by the whole album. The GnR version sounded like shit afterwards.More Covers!

  • So true grenadier, i'd never heard the original of this song before it came out, but i loved it. Covers in this genre are responsible for widening my music horizon a lot. I know many people find these type of covers stupid, and i also do from time to time, but mostly i think of them as tributes to good texts, melodies, og great bands.

  • yeah zupa

  • einfach nur geil^^^^^^schwärmz^^^^^^

  • All you negative people ALL sound like your parents....lol

  • @avance1979

    You don't know my parents. They're sounding like you.

  • nice like this song

  • 0:43

  • Midnight Oil - Beds are burning (original) much better..

  • Wasn't she in the movie, Eurotrip?

  • yes true ... she was mike xD

  • Super ssooonng :)

  • 1:11

  • A perfect example of our retarded pop-culture! A song with political meaning perverted to big piece of nothing. I imagine all the ignorants in a club dancing to the beat and sipping on their drinks with no clue whats going on in the world, or at least what the song is about.

  • you've got a good point, but.. When a hot babe dances to this you gotta love it ^^

  • you are absolutely correct..this is garbage and makes me want to puke. This happens way too often...

  • I totally agree, this is crap. Look for Johnette Napolitano's cover of the song, she was the singer for Concrete Blonde, and she gave it back the meaning it deserved to have. I'm just going to pretend this video never happened, lol

  • I totally agree, OG. I have NO idea how anyone can take this fluff seriously, let alone HOW on earth this band got the rights to release this song....surely Peter and the boys would have stopped this?! Its such a pity to see such a meaningful and politically flammable song turned....into this...so sad

  • @portishead024

    Agree.

  • Entertaining. I could help myself from laughing...

  • what a mutilation of a great song.

  • she's so hot

  • from 0:43 (rock)

  • how could u made this blue time thing

  • Songs kinda good,the video is confusing as hell.

  • Wow....lame.  No further explanation necessary

  • shut up.

  • in eurotrip fand ich sie aber schöner ;)

  • the original was FAR better

  • i like turtles

  • Hab falsch gdrückt..Sorry...Nova Meierhenrich ist ein schöner Betthase für ne Nacht.Mehr nicht.Sorry an alle Andersdenkenden;-)

  • freak. that is not nova meierheinrich. that is jessica böhrs OMG hahaha idiot

  • Like it way better than the original!

  • This version is good I think but the original is the best song ever made in the world if you ask me...

  • Comment removed
