The chorus on the album version wrecks it a bit, and JDB mangles the best line "Kind people should never be treated like flies". My favourite line anyway.
I'm quite a big fan of Nicky's voice. I love JDB as well, obviously. The only benefit of Nicky is that you can ALWAYS tell exactly what he's saying. This is just not the case with JDB!
I find Nicky's voice to be an acquired taste. I don't hate the demo version but give me James Dean on the Album version any day. But I agree Nicky's voice does have that melancholy tone that Richey probably intended for the song when he was writing it.
Sorry but I actually adore Nicky's voice. He isnt a "shite singer" he just has a different way of vocalising the lyrics. This one sounds more real if you understand what i mean :)
I don't think so, Nicky's voice may sound weird but I find it beautiful and I kind of like this song better with him on vocals instead of the 'official' version

He may not be a good singer in the classical sense, but his voice fits perfectly on this melancholical rendition of an already extraordinary song.

This is beautiful. I like the original, but this one really made me sad.
