no offence, but i take it all you people leaving comments r not british? this song was origonally recorded by the stone roses and was the opening track on their self titled debut album. i highly recommend getting a copy as its probably the best album of all time!! NOTHING BETTER THAN THE ORIGINAL!!! good version though.

@jasonjmj I didn't have space in my other comment so I will say it here, good post about the purpose and nature of cover versions from the side of the artist covering.

@jasonjmj I would argue that there are a select few. Dinosaur Jr.'s cover of 'Just like Heaven' by the Cure is superior imo, and I may take quite a few people with me on that one.
Arguing purely which is better is stupid, it should be about talking about the songs individually. If all a person has to contribute is that they like another song better/that "this sucks" then really is it a worthwhile contribution?
Criticism is what makes our art worthwhile, would we be really engaging otherwise?

@pstrokeslibsarctic Not Ian Curtis, he is imitating Ian Brown's distinctive dance.

Great song. Great cover by a band that used to be great.

HAHAHAHA Totally!!! I was thinking to myself *Where have I seen that little dance before?* Good eye!! :)

Nice.

do you have any videos of Company Calls?



Why do we even have to debate cover songs vs originals? Has a cover ever been better, ever?? No need to compare, they are obviously fans of the original which is an all time great song, and they wanted to pay homage. Don't make more of it than that.

@jasonjmj you are exactly right, besides the fact that this performance is 10 years old. people need to relax, it's a tribute to the stone roses, not trying to show them up.
