  • I love Frank, and Roxy are gods. All respect - but this cover sucks ass.

  • Dislike. Shit.

  • Fat Man!

  • Next time is the best time we all know.

  • This monkey's gone ... to ... ?

  • The special Frank Black's art communicative quality!

  • very good

  • hey did the bass player use to be in pj harveys band??

  • Ah, I'm not the only one wondering..

    But I can't find a thing on the internet.

    Even not his name :(

  • yeah i had a look on the net as well, but nothing.. lets just say its him. great bass player - seen his live stuff with p.j. harvey. he really gets into it. love it.

  • Best videos ever. YEAYERAH

  • not a great cover but frank black is great and is obvious that he really likes the song enough to cover it

  • God I wish I still had my copy of Oddballs. I love the studio version of this song, and I can't find it anywhere.

  • How is this guy? Is this the dude that sings with Jack Black?? Pretty good version of a great song!

  • This guy is Black Francis AKA Frank Black AKA CMK Thompson IV.

    He is one of the most influencial rock characters to have raised from the 80's and he knows a few secrets.

    ...and he has very good taste for covering songs.

  • the guy is like an encyclopedia of rock

  • loathar21, you are one lucky dude. this guy's catalog is huge. He's the most under-acknowledged talent that America has ever produced.

    Start with the Pixies. You could chew on that for a year or so.

    Don't miss Kim Deal.

  • your thinking of kyle gas, but frank does kind of look like him

  • @loathar21 He's the lead singer for the PIXIES maybe you've heard of them

  • everything he touches turn to gold... and this one is gold on gold

  • No fucking way... I always thought the tune was too punk for Ferry... it's perfect with Frank's screams. I mean, PERFECT. CPL-593H!

  • Great cover. Great energy. CPL593H!

  • looking for bluefinger

  • haha his little dance at 1:39 was amazing

  • nice video...Alway the same thing....FRANK BLACK RULE...

  • Oh! You're damned right! 2007 is the year of the Black Diamond Dog. Because of the 7, I guess...

  • Fuck me ! this probably the year to see the man. WOOW!!!!

  • I knew he mada a cover of this roxy track but this is the first time I've seen it. If he was gonna cover any roxy track to match his madness. It had to be this one.

  • Charlse seems to be just going through the motions with these.

  • Oh my god!

  • holy shit!!!

    C-P-L-9-5-3-A!

  • CPL-593H!

  • CPL-5938

  • It is CPL 593H. It's a British car registration no (year 1970) that the song's writer (Bryan Ferry of Roxy Music) once owned and spotted a year or so later when a good looking girl turned up and drove off.

  • oh,ok. fair enough... i guess it is easily possible to get it wrong, CPL-5938 was what the bassist and guitarist sing in the choruses (when thet did sing!) .. i know this for a fact (i was the guitar tech for this tour and we did discuss it) but i'm not gonna linger on such a tiny detail, they rock and it's still a good version of a good song!!

  • Yeah they sound great. I missed Black Francis a few year's ago but am pleased to say that I am going to the Wedgewood Rooms gig in Portsmouth in February.
