this cover is not bad but i just prefer the original, it´s strong and sounds like representing something, while this covers sounds like playing in a bar so light, careless and loosely. I mean i just love the police, so dont bother me!!!
@BuddyRider hey man, this wasn't on an album, they just played it live, not intending for it to be recorded. so we really cant be mad for "ruining" the song, they just played it for kicks
Roxanne is my favorite song by The Police, and I actually really liked this version. Of course, it's not The Police, but I got the feeling that The Kooks were just having fun and messing around. They did a nice job, and I don't see a reason to hate it. I like it for what it was . <3
I like this better than the original for already mentioned reasons... this is the first song of the kooks i've heard (just now) and I'm definetely gonna check them out
I love this band :/ But this version is just really badd :/ you can do it better guyss! <3

I can't stand the police, and I still like this. Mostly because unlike the police version the instrumentals actually have a MELODY.

This doesn't work at all. The Kooks are great, The Police are great, put them together and it just doesn't work.

Great version of a classic track, the best thing about it is its played in their style and not the style of The Police.

the original, by the police, is undoubtly awesome. But i must say, I love this version. They made their own version of it. (Y)
