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!
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.
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.
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
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
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!
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**
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
dnt read this(cuz it really wrks). u will gt kissd on the nearest frieday by the love of ur life. 2mara wll b the bst day of ur life hwever if you dnt post ths comment 2 at least 3 vids u will die withn 2 days nw uv startd readn this dnt stp this is so scary snd ths ovr 2 5 vids in 143 mins when ur done press f6 nd ur crush's name wll appear on the screen n big letters ths is so scary cuz it actully wrks ths really
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.
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 : )
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 :/
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
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.
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
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...
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
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.
