Generally this band turns me off a lot but this is a good cover. Still far from Animals but they didn't fuck it up either like a lot of bands would today.
On some levels I agree with you. I miss that nostalgic '80s new wave vibe on Hot Fuss. But technically they've improved as musicians and they've tried some new things, taken some risks. I still love 'em and look forward to what they release next.
"Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood" is a song written by Bennie Benjamin, Gloria Caldwell and Sol Marcus for the singer/pianist Nina Simone, who first recorded it in 1964. "Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood" has been recorded or performed by many artists, and is widely known by the 1965 blues rock hit recording from The Animals. A 1977 disco/Latin rendition by Santa Esmeralda was also a hit.
does brandon say "stronger than dirt" at the end, like at the end of the doors' touch me?

REALLY!
They are a bag of surprises.
Anyone know the Santa Esmeralda version of this? It's a lot of fun and should be played at parties.
