I'm back after watching this a year ago. It's nice to see people still bitching about the person in the video
On a side note: After listening to SO much more music, I can say this sounds like Coldplay a little. Only it's not whiny bullcrap

i dont see how this is considered bad

Yeah not a bad cover but seriously what the fuck does it matter about sexual preference? Seriously, why can't we fucking live a world where we judge people on their human traits? Sexual preference makes no fucking difference to what kind of person someone is.

Why would they have a nasty ginger in this video

@TheRoyaroar yeah but who is singing the cover?

The distorted voice sucks, the piano sounds feel like a Tori Amos rip off, the harmony of the original is missing. It would only get 2/10 because of the awesome original. But even listening to the Pixies's version while being beaten on the ears with a shovel would be more fun than listening to this crap.
TL;DR: This cover sucks.



Stop judging this based on the vocalist's sexual preference. It should have no impact on your opinion of the song. In the twenty-first century, we should be past thinking like this but sadly we aren't.
Anyway I like the alternative take on this song, but I don't think Frank Black meant this song to be sung so intensely. The artist could do a great job with other songs, but The Pixies were a bit more lighthearted than what he is portraying it as. Anyway I think its good, similar to Bowie.
