  • great...I enjoyed

  • 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.

  • the singer sucks but besides that it's a decent cover

  • Comment removed

  • Actually it's the same shit .. ;D Like both cuz it's almost the same ;D

  • they did a great cover! excellent band.

  • Excellent version!

  • great cover job. i liked the version alot

  • good one

  • braid cover is also great

  • I have =

    this better IMO

  • Just compare this to Noel Gallagher's....

  • Good cover I reckon

  • They really don't get that song

  • I've got to admit, this version is much better. No so depressing or whiny, although I love the original, this is an improvement.

  • Being a big Smiths fan i can say this is a nice renditionof this great song

  • Dum Dum girls have a better cover

  • might not be as good as the original, but at least its not as bad as the death cab version..

  • The acoustic nada surf cover is alot better i feel :-3

  • If you like The Smiths, check out Braid's cover of There is light that never goes out and this charming man. Amazingg!

  • Nice cover!

  • sucks

    

  • crap.

  • how cool defontes covers this in concert as well

  • good cover

  • awesome cover!

  • 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!

  • top notch!!

  • Wow, they did a great job. :)

  • Top class!

  • La versión de Smiths es inmejorable pero esta no está tan mal. Una de las mejores canciones de todos los tiempos.

  • awww:)

  • fucking AWESOME guys!

  • this song reminds me of when you were young(a great song by the killers)

  • the smith version is better 

  • ich möchte immer weinen...

  • @OasisFanatiker908

    Lass dich in die Arme nehmen ... ;-)

  • 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.

  • @gogogunners "In the 60s, did fans argue..."

    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

  • its a good cover. not as good as the smiths though(:

  • this is not okay ):

  • I like it...but the music overpowers the wonderful lyrics

  • Like this, think it deserves credit. Will be checking them out on spotify very soon.

  • nada como los smiths....

  • decent band

    but how in hell can you compare anyone to the smiths? Thats right, you can't.

  • They're right up there with the smiths.

  • @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

  • Actually it sounds nice. Nice rhythm also nice voice. Thank you for admiring MORRISSEY and THE SMITHS...

  • love both bands. smiths covers are hard to do. morrissey's theatrics are unmatched and i accept that. still, homage should be payed, i believe.

  • i actually like this better C:

  • lol, naaaaaaaa.. you cannot match Johnny Marr on this track.

  • ew how dare you

  • Nice cover of a legend song

  • I like it! Nice cover guys.

  • i love this song and its cool to hear different bands covering the smiths songs

  • i cant find this anywhere and its not on itunes where did u get it?

  • hum, If I remember, I think I loaded this song illegaly lol but Schuttt !

    But If you want this song, give me your mail adress and I'll send you it

    and by the way thx for coment

  • download it with sharetube

  • One of my favorites songs... i like the "taste" you pour on this cover... its fresh... congratulations...

  • 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 !

  • If you were born between 1965 and 1978 and ever liked music, you must have a favourite Smiths song...probably this one

  • i was born in 93' and this song is 1 of my favorites of all time!!!!! im mostly a metal head! i like the original better :)

  • 89' mate... and it's not just a favorite smiths song...it's THE best written and composed song ever. <3 :)

  • I'd say there are better Smiths songs! Just taste :)

  • @louisgarrel2 TOTALLY AGREE.

  • Good cover =]

    nice voice x
