People keep your negative comments to yourself. Everyone has their own soul and interpretation to a song. Being a musician, mixer, singer, whatever I want ti to be how feel at the time. The Smiths sounded great but does there interpretation of the song they wrote so rightous, well its a yes or no thats your interpretation. Nada Surf come to Columbus Ohio ,theNEWPORT MUSIC HALL is ready for you. Oh by the way watch for a NEW BAND ,"Blue Wild Angel in the studio as we speak.
thanks for loading this...huge fan of The Smiths and this is an excellent version by Nada...haven't heard this before. And the singer doesn't suck...listen to the original songs.
Quite possibly the best youtube upload EVER. lyralias please can we have the track? Pretty please? We'll take you anywhere we don't care, we Don't Care!
Y argue over which version is best? Obviously, the Smiths' version is definitive. Still, this cover gives it a West Coast flavor that appeals to my Cali Grl heart. I like Death Cab's too. In the 60s, did fans argue over which Proud Mary was better, CCR's or Ike & Tina's? Or which Respect ruled, Otis Redding's or Aretha's? Or which Watchtower, Dylan or Hendrix? Covering a song was a way to pay homage to an icon AND stake your own claim as an artist. "Can't we all just get along, people?"
@gogogunners Good point; The Smiths' version is the original and the benchmark, and nothing, IMO, replaces it, but to me, a good cover is one that puts an original and creative spin on a classic while remaining faithful to it, and as long as you can pull that off, more power to you. I think this version fits both criteria.
I'm sure that they did. I would have. And if this cover would have been released in the mid eighties, close to the original's release, I would raise hell. But the fact of the matter is that, like you implied, this cover is a tribute -an homage to the original song. No one can touch the definitive version, but this one in particular is pretty good.
Youtube "Neil Finn & Johnny Marr shaymcn1". My favorite cover of this song. ;)
nada surf are one of the best bands around... shame that they can't touch this song :( Divine Comedy version is much superior to all, including The Smiths. Just my opinion
@escapethehero come on that band is up there with the smiths u need to listen to a little more music they covered a good song badly if they had opened for the smiths back in the day they would have been laughed at next thing u kids will say is she wants revenge is as good as joy division so a word of advise go research the early 80s manchester scene
@aaron1888 are you kidding dude? why the would i go research the early 80s Manchester scene? I have a life outside of youtube and telling people their musical tastes are wrong. Nada surf is an awesome band, as are the smiths. Clearly you need to listen to a bit more music, not me. Pipe down and stop kidding yourself you hipster faggot. I like joy division, I know they're better than she wants revenge but it's really none of your business.
Oh and i fucked your mom.Blaster her right in the butt.
@aaron1888 Like really? you want me to google the early 80s manchester scene? who the fuck does that? You can't be serious. You make me laugh buddy. You're a joke. You self righteous prick.
@escapethehero genius just posted u an educational video response to u and the rest of the more intelligent viewers here this was a band from fla that never did a record u have no clue i wasnt trying to be rude just trying to teach u something u are a joke hahahahahah
It's great too see many modern bands appreciating The Smiths Music....Muse, Arcade Fire, Placebo , Radio Head , Noel Gallagher and many others show what a great influence they were !
great...I enjoyed
