I love this version to pieces. The other guy singing with Jeff is a songwriter from New Zealand named Chris Knox, who has had material covered by Jeff Mangum.

The Beatles = Jeff Mangum
You disagree, you don't know SHIT about music.

This cover is interesting, and I certainly admire Jeff Mangum a great deal (as much as John Lennon in many ways), but I think what is so impressive about Lennon's version of this song is that it the emotional intensity--the screaming and such--was so precisely refined. In this version, they seem to sort of be just screaming to scream. Seeing as it was such a personal song to Lennon, I just don't buy the emotion in the same way. Certainly worth listening to, though.

Oh, man.
Even though it's so ear-wrenching.
So insanity-inducing.
So confusing.
So vile and putrid.
I didn't want it to end.

Yeah... I mean it's funny anyway. It's great to hear them having fun, but it's pretty rubbish when you come down to it.

I'm quitte sure that's much of the idea behind being "lo-fi". You know what they say about "shitgaze": It's just like shoegaze, but sounds shitty.
Thanks for the comments
