  • Roadrunner, roadrunner! Er sorry, wrong song...

  • @mdtietge: Wire´s version is unsurpassed - but this lightweight version is....aaahm..."acceptable"....­.REM have their merits somewhere else ! 

  • like Wire's version there's no other, but R.E.M.'s is better playing live :D

  • Ok, I love R.E.M. and I think they have great taste in covers. They just don't do them well.

  • I meant the bass note, a snigle one but painful, listen for yourself.

    Stipey sings lower but not outta key.

  • you're absolutely right you know but Peter doesn't hide from it. he once said that sometimes he uses old chords but played differently rhytmically e.g.

    But many bands do this you know

  • Always loved this song... and I've always maintained that REM re-writes their songs... It's my belief that they took Wire's song and re-wrote it as Get Up.... and then Star 69 from Monster.

    Call me crazy... go ahead.

  • I've got this excerpt of this show on a boot called "Up North"
