The Stranglers' "Hanging Around" By Straighten Out

[Lollertron]

pretty sad how the cover/tribute band is better than the stranglers at present...

[88gazzman]

Why don't you spend some dosh and do a proper video HD recording?

[Memorex62]

Great cover of a great song!!!!!!!!!

[SMSScharnhorst]

Great Work!!!!!!!!!!

[kalisteboat]

Waaaaaah, you've kept the soul of the original.

I closed my eyes and i've heard the stranglers at their best.

(especially the live at the battersea park in 1978)

Congratulations guys !

[moaka8138]

nice nice and the solo also gos rly nice

thumb up :D

btw dude wich chords u se for the main riff on the guitar or power chords

[SimplyReg]

@moaka8138 Am, C, G, root 6 barre chords.

[calumsb321]

bass needs to be louder apart from that good

[rocktastic2]

drummer sounds like a blind man building a shed

[Lordwatson303]

That is the funniest thing I have ever heard. Thankyou!

[Lordwatson303]

@rocktastic2 My favourite comment on Youtube

[gary6667]

This is actually better than the Stranglers without Hugh. And it's a damn site better than Hugh on his own!

I would go and see these rather than The Stranglers of today. Good stuff

[colonelkaiju]

Agreed!

[nicky52]

It sounds really good I agree - what you are doing, you are doing well. If you can make a living out of it then good luck to you. Personally, I'm struggling to see the point though.

[SimplyReg]

Well, thanks. :) The point is to entertain people, and be entertained. We really enjoy what we're doing.

It certainly isn't about the money, lol.

[heston99]

the lead singer sounds really like hugh cornwall!

[rubencon]

The singer just needs to dye his hair , they are really good

[grahamdee1]

if you're a Stranglers fan then you need to go and see these guys.... unbelievable!!! I saw them in Farnworth nesr Bolton last year - as with any cover band, they need to play the tracks as per the released record.... and these lads do it with 100% perfections. And if that bass player was female i'd fucking marry him and make him play to me in bed.

[DAREALAndyRampage]

'Once again, you'se Guys really; 'Nail it'!!! ..

i'll Say to YOU again though, "really REALLY Surprises ME that YOU fellows don't do: "Straighten Out"!!" which I AM Quite sure you also 'Nial' with your usual proficiency!

[TheSpectator123]

Terrific cover! Not an easy song actually, deceptively difficult. Well done on the solo too.

[SimplyReg]

Thanks!

[langs57]

Great version.You played the solo as well as Cornwell.

Is that the keyboard players real hair? I can't make out if he has a tach. Brill.
