horrible!!!

I love the madness she brings into this song. It's no longer a love song....it's so desperate and fed up and barely hopeful.

You mistake passion for anger.
-
This version disgusts me, also the Pip version of "Me and A Gun", but we have to rip off the beautiful surfaces of things to truly realize and accept that it's still possible to change these situations.

To me, the original was about how a person craves for eternity, love and beauty. It was arranged beautifully and made everybody feel like there's still an answer after all these years of thinking and despairing.
But unfortunately the truth is, if anybody is looking for something really hard now, it's for money, sex and violence. And Tori knows that only by exposing that dark part of life, we can't get to the bright part.

I love Tori, and she is my absolute favorite, but I also love Neil Young immensely. This is a wretched cover, my least favorite of hers next to "Total Eclipse of the Heart". It's a gentle, contemplative song, and to quote a hater, she did indeed "rape" it. This is violent, angry, and wrong. The sincerity and sadness present in the original have been ripped away, as with any real meaning. I don't know how she interpreted the song lyrics, but it just doesn't work for me.

I love almost All of her songs and most of her covers, but THIS... I really cringed when I first heard it and every time after.
-
As Peter Murphy sang Tori "cuts you up and spits you out". I think she is some kind of genius but just not usually my taste and this is just a bad cover.

How about you watch it as if you have never heard the song before. And let what her take of it is soak in. I love the 1996 covers. How much do you actually like her?
