We did this cover for The Carpenters' tribute album "If I Were a Carpenter". We originally wanted to do "Superstar" and were granted that track. But then Sonic Youth said they'd only participate if they could do that song. We were kind of bummed. By then all the "good" songs were already taken. We found this obscure cover Carpenters did of this alien Klaatu song. The very best part of all of this, is that Richard Carpenter said this was his favorite track on the tribute album. So there.
@Gritnom: have another helping of boogers, Klaatu wrote the music and lyrics to the very song you appreciate. This is a good version, very simple and probably better suited for your remedial mind

Klaatu version sucks though I believe it's the original. The Carpenters version is better. This version's the best.

I fucking love this song!! Just goes to show, honestly, that rock music really is better than anything else.

They sound better when they cover other people's songs. They do way too much with their own music. I like how monotoned she is...

@ScienceProjek is that just a convoluted way of saying they can't write good songs ?

@LaughingIsLiving1234 I really like this, Do you know if they have anything similar?

@ScienceProjek Their best and most famous song is probably Handsome and Gretel. Great song, with extraordinary vocals and really obscene lyrics!
