Did they destroy the song, or is it a groovy cover?

I'm kinda groovin' to it myself, but her pitch goes a bit doggish in in frequency at some points.

I'd like to hear Dolores Mary Eileen O'Riordan (The Cranberries) re-make that.

They didn't destroy it, they just bored it to sleep - Its completely without passion.

I agree.

As much as Morrissey annoys me, this is nowhere as good as The Smiths.

Except Tatu are hawt.

I swear,, they sound just like Alvin and the Chipmonks to me

Yeah, I've liked that version.

How about this one? Phantom of the Opera by Me First and the Gimme Gimmes.

Shrill! That's the word I was looking for. That chick's voice is too shrill.

 

[SuperMike]

It doesn't compare to Morrissey & Johnny Marr. Especially Johnny Marr.

The problem is with covers alot of the people try to "compare" it with the original. As you can see they put there own twist on it... Enjoy it for what it is.. Different and it was cool.

Now mind you having said that I am HUGE Morrissy and SMiths fan... in fact my first concert I went to was the Smith's with Phranc opening for them in Berkley at the Greek theatre years ago...

So I am qualified to say if it is good IMHO... I think it is good quite good in fact just nothing like the original...

Not so much a "cover" but more homage with again there own twist...

 

[1sicv8]

not feelin it... wasnt really diggin the rob zombie cover either...

 

[Seesm]

Yeah also have seen (had I should say) The Ramones so that is a tough one but it is nothing like the original again more of a homage but I feel that less than the tatu dealio...

Yah I didn't like the voice, way too chipper for a Smith's song. :laughing

I always liked the remake of this song from The Craft, the soundtrack for that movie was quite good:
