I like their version better,Beatles were trash they sounded like like they were banging on trash cans and screaming,and on drugs.of course almost everyone loves the beatles but I am proud to say I don't. Thompson Twins for life
@Dashland13 - Yes.....happens to all of us (though some of us won't admit it). Can go on for years until one day we wake up and wisper to ourselves WTF was I thinking?
The Beatles are overrated and boring. Get over it. The Thompson Twins are fun, crazy, and awesome. Anyone can do a cover, it's not like Beatles music is an ancient artifact that you can't touch or replace. Many artists have covered Beatles songs, and most of them have been better than the originals. But nobody's been able to tackle "I Am The Walrus" quite right. That's the exception.
@JohnnySwitchblade I have to agree, I get that the Beatles were a BIG thing back in the 60s when they were new, the British invasion and the breakthrough of rock and roll and all that...but since then there have been plenty of bands who produce MUCH better music than they did.
@kthankxbye Whenever a band or singer releases a cover song AFTER an album or two of original material, that's it, it's over. And if the WHOLE album is covers, forget about it (hence Guns N' Roses)

The black girl playing guitar in this video is Felicia Collins, who now plays in the CBS Orchestra on The Late Show With David Letterman.

It's not stealing. It's a cover-song, and lots of artists do it.
