  • Always loved this song as she sung it . . .

  • The thing that I love about Nouvelle Vague covers is how they make my imagination go wild. I always dream up some scene when I listen to their songs. I love them.

  • For me, the original is living in the moment with regards the lyrical content. This cover is looking back on life and reminiscing about how it used to be. I'm a massive fan of the original and I think this cover does it enormous justice.

  • I'm not sure whether or not I like this...

  • b side to the masterpiece that is Ghost town,but this song has a charm of its own.This cover doesn,t do much for me though,its that familiar trap of lesser artists thinking if they slow it down and add acoustic guitar it represents an expressive take. You and i know its boring.

  • Enjoyed the song and like the music,dismiss the idiots :)

  • This song is perfect when you're waking up after party, smoking a cigarette and watching the street while all your friends are sleeping.. Just imagine..

  • love the specials but this is a good cover,I like the style

  • Dunno why, i feel like i'm going to cry T_T

  • @l0veyd0veyd00 me too, it's so beautiful

  • The Old World has style.

  • my song

  • Love them both..original was cracking and on the numbers ...this cover shows another poetic beauty in the lyric.

  • 30 seconds into watching the video i knnew it was cooL

  • I actually really like this. Her voice is like a kitten. I want to stroke her face.

  • <3

  • very nice :)

  • I didn't like this one at first.....

  • go out at friday night & come home at saturday morning indeed...=)

  • love that song... <3

  • kind of tragic..

  • I so luv this;-)

  • I soooo luv this;-)

  • better thn original?

  • bello

  • wow magnifico video e questa versione è magnifica: GREAT!

  • Wow, love this track. Though the intro made me think I was listening to Sixpence None The Richer at half speed.

  • great version!!

  • I love it!

  • Nah , I cant be bothered with this. Its just cofee table shit. Very very clever idea though , New wave with nostalgic 60's type Parisian Chique. Its made them rich.

    The Trouble is it gets dull after the initial novelty.

  • A very very nice song!

  • this cool but,

    how the hell does this have more hits than the original

  • Interesting cover

  • I can't stop listening to this song, just love it :O

  • perfect..

  • nouvelle vague does amazing covers.

  • you're cool

  • ANCONTE!!!!!!!!al massimo è il contario questo gruppo e la sua musica è un po' che circola.....

  • ha accordi simili ad IMMOBILE - ALESSANDRA AMOROSO

  • 1:30 mariana is cool

  • :29 Whoa! This video is brilliant

  • fantasic song. amazing video

  • This is what a cover ought to do.

  • great video

  • Man, people are dumb. Who ever said a cover had to be an exact duplication of the original? Music is ART and it is open to interpretation and the beauty of music is that artists are free to interject their own personal bits of artistic idiosyncracies, even when doing a cover of another artist's song. That's exactly what makes this version so awesome. They took a great song, adapted it in their own unique way, and made another great song that is actually a beautiful homage to the original.

  • hallelujah to that.

  • @Chrisfromlehigh I'd say the best covers sound can't sound just like the original, otherwise it's just a recital.

  • Must see this song live, what an atmosphere!

  • @Orsojka i actually saw this live in October and i must say it was mind-blowing.

  • ohh ahh mmmm <3

  • Interesting version of this classic song. Doesn't quite work for me though, as it fails to capture that gritty 80s laddish feel that the specials captured so well.

  • Yea agreed. I def enjoy this one but there is this feel of hoodlum fun in the special's original.

  • Love this music! TY :)

    Summerbreeze

  • Vive Paris ♥

  • Someone knows where I can find the video of " in to manner of speaking " of nouvelle vague, but the original version

  • an amazing cover and an amazing song

    SPECIALS kickass

  • Live they are incrideble

  • wow, one of the best videos i´ve ever seen on youtube

  • a great cover of a great song :D

  • muchisimo mejor la de specials

  • Zajebista.

  • zajebista!

  • bardzo fajna piosenka..taka spokojna

  • It's good but not completely correct wordwise like,It's SPEW!XOX

  • I go out on friday night and I come home on saturday morning... :) Love it!

  • anytime i hear one of nouvells songs first i love it more than the original but if i hear one of her songs after iv already heard it form the original artist i hate her version... i cant help being biast...

  • They are INTERPRETING songs and making them sound like Nouvelle Vague and not trying to make a perfect copy. They put this special NV thing in them.

  • Excuse me, but if someone did a cover version of one of MY songs I would be fucking chuffed to bits!! Have you not heard the saying "Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery"?? Get over your previous ways of thinking that it is COPYING. If the singer of Joy Division (yes I know that's Ian Curtis!!) heard what you said he would be turning in his bloody grave!! Let his memory LIVE!!! I should not have to explain this...

  • See mate. I agree with you. I don't mind this version but do prefer the original by a long, long way.

  • love this version and the specials version just as much :)

  • I love this version of The Specials classic. Video is really cool too,

  • Genial cu siguranta.:X

  • cu siguranta:)

  • I agree with EllwoodBlues. good but not as good as specials. specials were the original as well, so it's their lyrics

  • klimatyczna..

  • Not bad at all, but Specials is still better.

  • When my feet go through the door, I know what my right arm's for.

  • i really like the specials original but i think this sounds better.

  • OMG, such an amazing version of the original!

  • This is excellent!

  • piosenka dla Olgi!!  ;) koleżanki

  • oui, c'est tres bien, yeah

  • Excelente!!!!
