Does it get better after 0:06? That's all I could stomach.

[wassermeister]

@permanenthursday in my opinion, yes

[robbykhu]

really rubbish. like comparing bush to obama...

[wassermeister]

your analogy is really rubbish -.-

[SiameseDream002]

"Oh Alexander I see you beneath the archway of aerodynamics....."

(Love the cover, one of the best pixies songs out there)

[McTowelie]

Jesus this is terrible. Don't cover this song please.

[rnrbishop]

She does sound a little off. Not terrible at all just not perfect. Perhaps its the dangers of a female singer singing a song intended for a male singer, especially with Black Francis's quite distinct voice.

[foundmykey]

People say it's bad singing. I think it's just terrible voice arranging. The singing is decent.

[Etaiu]

Found this quite by accident--and love it. The slight uptempo is refreshing, but also the female vocalist able sing her own backup tracks, makes for a cool layering effect. Reminds me a little of Tanya Donelly circa '92, and good rock & roll calls for lots of covers. 00:45 - 00:50 was particularly intense, and a nice retort to some of the more negative "pixier than thou" comments below.

[catullus20]

honestly its good except for her terrible singing... absolutely terrible no talent whatsoever singing. I DO like the background playing.. would have been better suited as an instrumental.

I dont know who would pay to hear her sing but Id pay to hear her NOT sing.

[IamNowJMAN]

Unfortunately, it's off. Especially her vocals in some parts.

[TepidVision]

This would be a good cover if it just had more bass I feel, I don't know it just lacks a little oomph somehow, otherwise its nice
