@ivorbigonee yes the Cuyahoga River in Ohio was on fire!
-
@ohiocanalgirl a river?
-
At least change it up a little! Sounds like karaoke
-
This is ok, but REM does a MUCH better job with this song!!
-
We set the Manchester Ship Canal on fire before it was cool.
-
Since I live on the Cuyahoga and saw REM perform at this at Public Hall in Cleveland when it first was released in the 80's, I give it my blessing. A fine rendition.
-
Wow - u guys are being too tough - I like it. Cool cover of a tune that would be pretty obscure to a non-REM fan. Bass line is fine by me, too. The only thing it lack is a little of the drive of the original, but this is in a radio station, not a recording studio.
-
@whoapower yes it is a slap in the face
-
@bklyntigr Agreed. It isn't just the lack of a Ric tone in the mix. The bass is off. The drums don't sit well. Unsure exactly how to pinpoint it except for wrong. If they did their own rendition of Cuyahoga, with a slight twist, I wouldn't be so heavy handed at criticizing the cover.
