FISCHERSPOONER - 15th

[whiskeychimp]

Heh..drummer is a valium-muppet..love this tune..

[PrisonerDrake]

It's like a BBC Radiophonic Workshop version.

[pacific707]

An interesting take on the Wire classic, The 15th. Not too bad.

[bigdsears]

Reminds me of the good old meth days

[rockstarwookiee]

@PlanetoftheAtheists I recommend checking out some of their other videos, like say, "Emerge".

I think looking "normal" is the effect they were going for in this video, because they usually look very, very far from it.

[PlanetoftheAtheists]

@rockstarwookiee thanks

[airbag97]

horrible

[gandalf802]

i don't get why everyone thinks the wire original version is sooooo much better. i listened to that one and it fucking SUCKS.

[borbetomagus]

Listen to this live version, which (I think) is much better than the album version --

[urbittergdbye89]

it was not there

[whiskeychimp]

Perfect cover tune,but compared to Wire,it's like a retiree on Nyquil making some eggs on a sunday.

[bigdsears]

... groovy old school amps man ...

[bryngOneOn]

casey spooner is obviously a gifted entertainer, may be even a pioneer in the video medium, But may i suggest you never watch a video on utube of him being interviewed as it nullifies his image, seems a bit of a donk imao, but then again maybe that says to what a great performer he is to go from opposing sides of the spectrum for cool.

[coyanikki]

So so, Wire is a million times better.

[PlanetoftheAtheists]

@coyanikki i am a huge Wire fan, and will always choose the original, but i love what they did to this song.

[bigdsears]

Emerge is playing on the radio when he pulls in...

[kataraxhinata]

Casey=Hot o_o;

I love them xD

[gododinou]

Perfect !!

[Dani1165]

holy shit, i saw this video on new york noise forever ago. Didn't realize it was them, but loved the song and never heard it again till now! That's where I first heard of M.I.A. also (way before paper planes)

[gandalf802]

that's the first time i saw it too.

[sickosandsuch]

They could have done better with the video, but it's a wonderful song: like the best drugs minimized.

[lamecasuelas2]

that album is greath

[FloydFANdango]

Fischerspooner really took what I think was a sub-standard song and made it absolutely GREAT !!

I can listen to this song forever and not get sick of it.

[mookie2637]

The original is one of Wire's best songs.

[NismoDJ20]

funny woh hes listening to Emerge at the beginning

[zcsutton]

Fischerspooner is the greatest. Laugh, Cry, Clean, Drive, Party. The tunes easily fall into any setting. I need more! Casey, Warren please!

[BIRRAFANCLUB]

LOKO

[gandalf802]

i listened to the original, and it sucks. why FS chose to cover such a shitty song, i'll never know.

[bigtimeconcepts]

You really don't get it do you ?

[300061120]

Love Ficherspooner

[IzMeggyWeggy]

Neat video. =)

[AlphaVinlander]

The original was better.

[mimesis6mime]

This is one of the sweetest songs I have ever heard.

Everyone who watches this video should start a band.

[Mountsims3000]

i love this song electroclash is the best

[Lilbudpump]

From someone who thinks that Wire's 154 may well be the greatest album of all time, I think this cover is...pretty good! Mike Thorne is probably jealous, he'd have liked to add all the extra keyboards this cover has. Ha!

[Animalll2003lll]

ha. actually fucking good. THUMBS UP FUSHERSPOONER!!!!!! that rules, seriously!

[ilexeye]

just saw WIRE play tonight... didn't know this was a cover. xxA
