POPSERVATION website just listed this version as one of TOP 25 COVER SONGS in 2011 along with ammmmmazing 'Garbage' band...... wwwdotpopservationdotcom
Dum Dum Girls ROCKS!!!!! :D, they have a lovley sound like dream pop indie bands of the 90's im in love :)..also they like The smiths!!! :D double in love !!!
Musically, this is great, but it definitely doesn't have the passion of the original, not dissing this effort or anything, just this isn't close to portraying the meaning of the song, this doesn't sound like the singer is in a car about to crash, it sounds like she's dancing manically round a room, the style fits in with earlier smiths songs, but not this.
@TheBrando382 Uh mate, I didn't say it was about that, I was just pointing out that in the original the emotion in the singing matches the lyrics better than in this version, xx I understand this song fine ta
Man, I just downloaded the EP yesterday and had no idea this song was a cover but I thought it really sounded Morrissey/Smith-ish. I guess there is a reason for that...
VIVA......LE DUM DUM's! The cover is great. The guitar tuning/mix at 1:29, 3:04 and 3:30 is even better. Thumbs up to the producer and sound guy on this one.
@clayguy33 oh you are into "EARLY" smiths? when was that during their five years as a band? and if there ever was such a period isnt this song from the mid-period?
@spillrorgbg I fallibly lump his solo stuff into that of the band, so I guess that's what I meant. I'm actually illiterate when it comes to dates, facts, music trivia and the like.
The best cover of this song by far, because it captures what made the song song great in the first place...not the lyrics or melody necessarilly, but the energy and atmosphere of the original. Finally some one gets it. (((d-___-b)))
@orange105 oh I love the lyrics and the melody so, so much actually. I was just trying to say that the other covers of this song often miss the spirit of this song in it's originial form. Sorry about the confusion.
L'unica cover esistente accettabile degli Smiths.
