nice creed impression. lol srsly tho nothin beat the big star version.

kristlkrost, I agree with you about Jeff Buckley's version - it's way over the top. Love Beck's take on this song.
Incidentally, I used to own the Big Star's vinyl album and on the label this song was originally listed as Kanga Roo.

Wow! Great recording of a great performance

@kristlkrost TMC's is by FAR the best...but I like Buckley's version too. I especially think it's cool, since his dad wrote Song to the Siren. Interesting to have a weird 3-way TMC connection like that.
I have heard him do a version of Cocteau's Ivo as well...so I guess that kind of makes it a 4-way connection :)

After listening to the original (Big Star's) for 25 or so years, I'm just discovering these newer versions. kristlkrost: that's one of the great things about music--how you can move foward and backward through time. And to each time, each new listener, the music is born anew.

Oh my my my I'm following the trail of this incrediby beautful song and I never knew.I only hear Coil's version and didn't even know Big Star did it first.I've been living under a rock!
Didn't really like Jeff's version ...which is rare for me and will keep listening to all of them ..But so far..TMC and Big Star ar my faves...TMC 's version has a haunting ...distanced quality that I was drawn to at first.
I loooove this song Thanks!
