  • fuck me murdered

  • "Attempt" - Says it all

  • it's definately not better than the original... It just doesen't get the same feeling and tone the original has especially the heaviness of the original.

    and flaming qotsa is so stupid cause this song is a fuckin tribute!

  • THIS SUCKS!!! His vocals are awful!

  • OMFG.... °_° ...what the hell happened with that bass ? and turn off that fuck that twangy voice !!! ><

  • stick to what you know

  • my ears are bleeding...

  • Drums are sweet.

  • I yet liked this song from queens of the stone age, but this song is quite cool too! Love it. But the original song is better ;-)

  • it's shit. but thats razorlight for you. perfectly good song ruined.

  • I hate the singer

  • Razorshite, one of a few blands that still haven't been weeded out by musical evolution

  • At least learn the words...

  • people just dislike, cause they like hate johnny , his pretty arrogant ive heard but just listen to the music.. michael jackson did all that shit. but i still love his music.

  • Proper gash!

  • this is a song for the deaf.

    

  • LIke the use of the word 'attempt'

  • So you take a good song, and cover it. Fair enough. But try to sound original and not try and imitate Josh Hommes voice. Covers aren't meant to sound the same.

  • :|.

    enough said.

  • Really..... How sad...

    Stick to your bad songs Razorlight!

    Don't touch real music

  • i quite enjoyed this honestly

    jonny borell isn't trying to be better than josh homme now is he? so people need to shut up about that, its different :)

  • wow this is terrible although sexy rickenbacker bass at the 1.00 mark

  • how dare they sabotage a quality tune like that........fucking terrible!!!!! Josh Homme should kill them for that!!

  • Its times like these I wish I were deaf.

  • well this is painfull...

  • jeuss christ where is my ear plugs!! AHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!

  • meine armen QOTSA-Ohren *gg*

    my poor QOTSA - ears

  • It's actually quite embarassing.

  • Schrecklich! Die sollen lieber ihre eigene Mucke machen.

  • i like how the description says: 'Razorlights attempt to cover No one Knows.

    It's not more than that is it?

  • This is so shit i can't really believe it! It really is like some shit school band or something.

    SOOOOOOOOOOO BAD!!!

  • i like razorlight... but borrell ain't a genius

  • i love queens hate razorlight

    but actually enjoyed this :P nout on the orriginal of course but quite fun to listen to all the same

    the vocals really do suck tho!

  • hard tune to sing,,,,too hard for johnny

  • Not bad but the vocals are bad, not such a genious now Borel.

  • covers are ment to vary in some sort..nt sound like the original otherwise they just end up soundin lyk a bad copy of the original

  • I think they make it sound trashy in a good way! lmao

  • i actually really like it

  • Sounds like an unimaginative school band who can just play instruments pretty well.

  • the guitar solo was a bit funny, in both senses of the word.

  • The instrumentals are great, Johnny's vocals are not. You can't top Josh.

  • ruined a great song!!!! shame on you borell!!!!!!

    WHY??

  • I hated it.

  • MURDER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • oh dear 0.o

  • FFS, make it stop!

  • alot of covers are better than the original so balls to that comment... this is an absolute tune and i suppose razorlight have taken queens of the stone age up north, made them eat fish and chips with boveral and mayonase causing them to throw up all over a perfectly amazing track... failblog

  • yeah but hardly any covers compare to their originals

  • haha i quite like this - they really put their own slant on it, and I'm not a fan of razorlight or borell at all

  • SUCKS

  • in fairness to the guys......nothing compares to the original so i guess it's a fair attempt in that case......love from galway, ireland ;) 2*

  • :( His voice is so bad!

  • horrid.

  • Johnny Borrell is such a gimp. I can respect that he has got some good songs to his name but he is so arrogant. Example; he said in an interview that freddie mercury and lennon and mccartney weren't a patch on him and that he could write better stuff than them given 5 minutes and a pen and paper.

    But all in all, bad cover, he tries too hard to be mr superstar but oh dear does he fail.

  • I wonder if he actually thought he could pull this cover off with any dignity? im guessing he knew he couldnt,but hey it wouldnt be the first time borrell has sold his self respect to the highest bidder...ahem

  • bloody hellllll........

  • I agree with SkyMovesSideways5 :)

  • johnny borrel what a cunt.

  • I try to be creative when being insulting! :P

  • They have ruined an awesome song

  • This recording is awful, and so is this bloke's voice...well, for this song anyway. Far too high, bring it down a few octaves and stop holding the notes!

  • original is far better

  • Pretty Cool.

  • doesn't help that it sounds like they're playing inside a dustbin...

  • ha ha nice comment.

  • absolute dog shit

  • i actually liked it hehe :P

  • wow. this really sucks.

  • don't like the cover but the drummer was pretty impressive!

  • tricky one to cover i'd say

  • Awful. !

  • His voice is terrible for this song. Josh is so falsetto and he's so high. It doesn't sound right at all.

  • eeeew!

  • AWFUL!

    HORRIBLE!

    TERRIBLE!!!

  • fucking ruined!

  • 50 - 50 like the bass the guitar needs to me RARRRR!

  • i really like razorlight ....but borrel's voice isn't so good.....he needs to sing his own stuff.....thats great because it works with his voice .....but this sucks in a way^^.....fu**

  • This song should have being levt to queens of the stone age ! as much as i like razor light

  • i really like it :L mind you i fully love razorlight :L

  • wa r u on razorshite. there a quality band. they sang 1 bad song an johnny was reading the words of a piece of paper coz they changed wat they wer singin at the last minute

  • razorshite

  • everything about this makes me want to cut out my insides and feed them to myself.

  • no solo?

  • Horrible

  • Dear God no!

  • What a bad song for them to cover..

    Not at all their style, and the vocals are completely wrong for Johnny Borell the pretentious twit.

  • they tried .. just failed, heroically.

  • Ouch

  • well i liked it.

  • its not so bad

  • i prefer josh hommes personally but the rest of its actually pretty cool

  • the vocals are shite!!!

  • Woah what shit....

  • i like razorlight but this is shit .the original of qotsa is 100000000000000000 times better

  • OHMYGIDDYGOD!!!!

    that is terrible!! it sounds like he is moanin nd wineing thro the whole song!!

    absalote WUBBISH!!

  • omg , tha literally S U C K S

  • horrible..... even tho im also a big fan of Razor....

  • id prefer to pish against the wind than listen to that again.

  • Shite!

  • corr i used to think you were alrite (N)

  • argh

  • My ears are bleeding.

    If this isn't some kind of bad joke, then i really think they deserve to be burned alive :P

  • we must burn it and NEVER speak of this again...

    poor queens of the stong age!!!!

  • terrible

  • ARGH.

    I think you've made me love QOTSA more...

    ...and hate razorlight more at the same time.

    :'(

  • this is it.

    before i heard this song i didnt believe in Ear-Cancer. now i do!

  • Why? WHY play this with an acoustic guitar?

  • Why not? I love Josh's/QOTSA's acoustic versions of it. The acoustic guitar isn't what makes it shit. Razorlight playing it is what makes it shit.

  • it's not bad. obviosuly shite compared to queens'.

    urgh. they're tryin'. lol :)

    new album's amazing tbh

  • whut a load of queers

  • HAHA! this is joke!

  • he's the new bono (translation: a prententious prick)

    of course he thought he could do this .... ARSE

    the rest of the band sound quite good though

  • Oh dear

  • this song has offically bin raped

  • Hahaha....Razorshite.....what a piss poor attempt

    I think Josh Homme should bitchslap the whole band

  • no-one can even come close to qotsa.

  • what a faggot

  • OMG SOOOO out of tune¬¬

  • They managed to make this song sound shitter than their original material (and that's pretty fucking shit).

  • This is so shite, it's almost funny.

  • Hahah! Not a touch on the original!

    Queens of the Stone Age are amazing.

  • i dislike razorlight

  • actually, this is a texbook example of 'how to rape a song'

    downright crap... no one should even attempt to cover Qotsa, there's no use in trying 'cause you'll never succeed in 'surpassing' the original...

  • AWFUL!!!!

    it seems like trash

  • let's be honest, this doesn't come near the original. The qotsa rock -period-.

  • Johhny Borrell is one of the last remaining actualy tallented frontmen of the 21st Century.

    Hes not even arrogant, just dont people trying to be always pestering about his personal life... Notice it all started when he was dating that blonde chick, then it cooled down abit... then same thing with that chick from Harry Potter.

  • he's a cunt

  • dont spose johnny actually cares what you morons think get a life!

  • who gives a shit about johnny? hes just an arrogant fucked up twat

  • ok lol know him personally do ya? ha have you listened to slipway fires an how much work obviously went into it? not a sign of someone whose fucked up.. and arrogance persona sells. by the way i love The Kooks too : )

  • pretty shit....they suck

    qotsa's version is so much better

  • it goes without saying, but this is fucking awful.

  • Am I really weird?

    I love it!!!

  • *has a really hard time trying to respect JB*

    he used to be sooo good.. I got to know RL back in 2005, LOVED up all night, but after that it went downhill with johnny's image, and the band :( I kinda like the new single, wire to wire, but it's nothing like the old razorlight, I miss the guitarness.. and this song is.. well maybe carl/andy should've sung it, johnnies voice isn't right at ALL for this song :/

  • totally agree, bring back the old razorlight of up all night, loved that album, still do

  • hell yea! they sold out

    my bands version of NOK was much better :p

  • hahahaha ...at all of the comments.

    theres so much hate!!

  • This does Johnny no justice. Its obvious this song is too big for him and his band , but they lost there way when the wrote America. Razorlight have lost there appeal to me anyway

  • oh dear

  • i feel sick

  • they did better than i though they would.

  • "attempt" to cover, LOL.

  • well i like it

  • il never forgive the faggots

    wtf fuck is the drummin. everythin else too.

  • OMG

    I feel completely scarred for life after letting myself listen to that

    :(:(:(:(:(:(

  • can i just say

    this is appaling

  • ye i du like scouting for girls aswell u fucking shit ed

  • just doesnt sound right

  • The reason he was reading the lyrics from a book were that they were originally doing a different song to cover, but changed their minds at the last minute. QOTSA is bjorns favorite band, so they decided to cover this song, at the last minute.

  • wasn't too too bad :p

  • it was the first bludy time they sang it. he was signin it of a piece of paper. an ive heard the original by the queens of the stone age and razorlights version is alot better

  • ha!!!!! EMMMMM.....NO!!!!!!!!!!

  • actually listen to it ass head, razorshite suck ass. jonny borell is a tit, really over-rated. they got booed to fuck at leeds the other year

  • are u actually a complete moron? josh homme can actually sing, whereas johnny borrell has to wail like a dying cat to try and hit those high notes which josh can reach with ease. johnny borrell is a pretentious cunt and i saw razorlight at reading and they were shit- about 10 to 15 thousand people partook in a mass exodus away from the mainstage about 2 songs into their set. i bet you like scouting for girls aswell

  • i fucking hate razorshite anyway and now i hate them even more. fuckin over rated cock sucker mother fuckers! qotsa r 1 of the bestbands about now and tey had the nerve to do no one knows as a cover. what dickheads...

  • Touche(too-shay)

  • So ruining songs is a style now?

  • WTF?

    horrible

  • makes you realise how good the original is, no offence razorlight lovers, alas, not a good cover.

  • i meant ignorant not iggnorant lol

  • I don't see why anyone would bother commenting if they thought it was that bad. You can't say that its the biggest load of crap ever when the live lounge is about doing songs in different styles your all just iggnorant

  • holly crap

  • rubbish

  • Holy Crap !!! I wish i would never heard it in my life ... so talantless. Waste of time ! Josh would have sh*t himself if he'd hear it ...

  • aiaiai

    you shouldn't cover qotsa

    they're way to good

  • I think im going to go and stab myself in the ears with biros.

  • he murdered this song...its all wrong

  • Horrendous

  • only someone like Jo Whiley could describe that as 'genius'...

  • Bollocks

  • Eeeeek!

    Bad! You all better respect Josh Homme's voice 100 times after this!

  • amen to that...

  • well i liked it :)

  • sweet jesus this is just so bad its beyond words razorshite are possibly the worst band around! they took an amazing song and made it unbearable!

  • i hate razorlight

  • 1*

    I'd vote lower if i could.

  • i don't mind razorlight but they've just lost a lot of respect from me.

  • same

  • The bass parts are the only good part about it.

  • The guitar sounds weak and jangly, like a toy guitar, hardly comparing to the strength and rhythm the the original holds. The breakdown in the middle is a terrible mess.

    Not to mention the vocals are just bad.

  • awful

  • shockingly bad.
