The Ataris / Christmas Card From A Hooker In Minneapolis

haha; i thought this was great until ole boy started singing.

It's just too literal, and too familiar to Tom's version.

Once again, I say fail.

And once again, boo.

p.s. - the "you suck" part was a bit too harsh... I take that back.

[JohnnyChicago]

All the soul is missing from this essential Waits song...

Boo.

You suck, boys.

Fail.

@JohnnyChicago People are being too hard on this cover. Sure, it's imperfect, but you can't expect anyone to live up to the standards set by Mr. Waits. Besides, I've heard MUCH worse covers than this!

I can't even begin to explain how awful this is. It's essentially a piece of poetry, not a song. So it needs character, soul, emotion... so why are the Ataris doing it? they sound like a shopping mall.
