I Love ES's original - never thought anyone could touch it - but this is straight. Queens of the stone age should be on some web site of worst covers ever attempted for that BS they tried to do w/ this song
The great thing about the original was the bare sound of Elliott's voice when he hit those high notes. This is a tad too synthesized but it's good nonetheless.
@IndusBlitz People criticize them for that? I honestly didn't really think much of the first album, but I've come to like it more over time. My favorite album is still Free, but I think my favorite song would have to be The Escape Artist. That second verse packs a punch.
as a lifelong Elliott Smith fan... i really like this.

Hm.
Great cover.
Not my style (too many voice effects),
but it was a very good interpretation.

That's a damn good cover. If I'd heard it before Elliott's I'd still love it. Awesome, I'll have to listen to their stuff now.

Do people not know what a cover is? Of course it's different from the original, it's just another band's interpretation.
