[tunstead88]

Like it, Like it....nice one!

[readerwriter]

Baldrick does Elvis Costello, nice work.

[bearandlou]

As plaintive and poignant version of this as you'll ever hear. Well done sir.

[makkapakka1964]

something poignant about this song....always make me feel like crying...i like your performance by the way.

elvis my arse

[andrewcunningham1]

great job

[franzisca61]

thank you! I was just looking for the great elvis costello's recorded version, the one with the chet baker solo at the end... but you are very good. a pleasure to re-member like this!

[graxxor]

Sweet version Simon! I'll doff my cap to this! One can't blag one's way through a song as naked as this by hiding behind layers of instrumentation. One's tackle's out on display... so to speak... and you pulled off to a T. I'd love to hear a less Wyatty version, more personal version in the future, too.

Nice to see people like bill3979 reaffirming their narrow outlooks on life. I'd hate to hear what illuminating things he would have to say about any recent Scott Walker covers that may exist!!!!

[Wadensten]

One of the best songs in the world... Lovely version from you. Really enjoyed it!

[bill3979]

God is that fucking awful.

[ritter89]

Are you another one of those clueless youtubers whose musical knowledge is to pop bands in the top ten? I only ask b/c as a matter of fact the guy in this video actually sounds very much like Robert Wyatt and yet all you can write is "fucking awful".. Apologies if I pegged you wrong but I'm tired of reading comments from naive twits who think they know something.

@bill3979

I've had a word with God. Took a year like, but he says to tell ye 'Naw, it's actually rather good, but why is the boy dressed like Travis Bickle gently restyled by Gok Wan?'

Then he said 'Dinnae tell me - I ken awready.'

So there you go - ask and ye shall receive. After a fashion.

[lynus111]

Sounds more like Danny dyer than Robert Wyatt.

[schwarzerkrauser]

wow

very very good musician u r

[allegroboy00]

you just got this one sorted

[robinlefay7373]

lol, very good mr. bath. You got the voice down pat. Great version, beats Suede by approx 200 & sixty miles. The drumming is kind of odd, though?

[clabedan]

Great camera work :)

Where was Steve Nieve??? the guitar, vocals and drums are a little bit skinny to say the least...

[MadeofMeat]

Great rendition. Not sure if your fans are following the Falklands backstory. Where can we buy a demo tape or something?

[Scarecrow901]

Good work matey, mike up the guitar for a bit of balance.

Liked this a lot.

[funcit]

Sorry, but didn't like this version.

[volubillis]

Vous avez de la merde dans les oreilles ou quoi ?? C'est horrible !!

[shunko1]

Get a hair cut you fuckin' hippy.

No!,really, I loved it!

[stemamo]

very good, i liked!

[Jerrybaylis]

great voice man, should go pro...

[beringseacaptain]

This Song makes me want to lengthen,sponson and buy more gear for my Vessel so I can catch more Fish.

[gluecksmari]

this song makes me want to build a ship

[ron7006]

very intense, simonbath... Do the giant shades hide giant tears? Who is the genius on the percussion behind the camera?
