You are right Gav1959, there is no comparison between these two songs. I like both versions. When the Animals released their version in July 65 it peaked at number two in the English charts and stayed in the charts for twelve weeks. I have no chart information for the Angels, however I think is probably one of the best remakes of all time. The Angels have put their own stamp on a classic rock song. It is very hard for a good band to wreck a good song by another good band.
Love the Animals & their version, but this one by the Angels has so much energy. No real comparison- this version really leaves the other one in the shade!
as much as I like the original I love the harder rock of this it is a song that needs an edge. so in the generations to come i hope they find a version that speaks to them
@brianofoz used to sing it at night club where it was 10 bucks all u can drink. changed it to gotta get locked in this place. funny thing is all the spirits tasted the same......gooood times...
@61SGman Not quite SG. Don't forget it's 20 yrs later and The Angels had access to highly improved equipment, recording and development of the rock sound. They just took the roots of a classic and made it into a masterpiece!! Someone else might do a cover of this song in ten years time...can't wait.
FILTHY VERSION IS FILTHY HOT
