  • I suppose it's just another way to corrupt innocent minds...

    I'm sure Mozzo will be pleased. :)

  • what a shame they had to select the corniest, most obvious songs.

  • Might be a closet catholic clergy hit if sung by a ten year old.

  • I remember hearing that tibute album to The Queen Is Dead back in late 90's and it was awful, just truly unlistenable. The worst moment was hearing Placebo doing Bigmouth, the acoustic guitar into sounded like a 12 year old playing, all lifeless and wrong, heartbreaking. Just shows how some of those 'star bands' that contributed are extremely lucky to be where they are, so many truly talented artists would love to give a tasteful rendition of those wonderful songs. Even Supergrass, who I usually enjoy listening to, couldn't even hold down a basic take on Marr's beautiful original riff on Some Girls, I mean, come on Gaz Coombes, it's not THAT difficult to play. If you're gonna do it, do the job right or don't bpther. It's sacrilege, by any othe name.
