Great song - much prefer this Noel + Chemical Brothers song than the "Setting Sun" hit from the previous album.
IMO "Surrender" was the best Chemicals album - more accessible and melodic than previous albums. Their follow up was a disappointment - lacked sparkle
My thoughts exactly...One of my fav. Chemical song, along with Block Rockin' Beats.
IMHO, this is better than the Lykke Li's original. More emotion into the singing, which I prefer over the "nymphette" mousy voice of Ms. Li. And considering that was a single take after a few minutes of practice in a radio studio ... pretty darn good.
The definition of mediocre.
Bruce Springsteen gone AM radio.
I doubt this song would have a rating nearly as high were Tom Waits' name not hung on it.
Disagree (my rating of this song * 10)% = 100 %
with this nonsense. Mr. Waits is (to me) quite the opposite of "skin deep" fluff. Scratch a little, pay close attention to the lyrics and the emotion they convey and you will find the beauty within.
If only that guy would stop signing. I little less "bombastic" fake hard-rock (a la Rock Star Supernova) signing would be great. I'm enjoying the music otherwise.
I have many more words: full of longing, beautiful, soulful, heartfelt, sad, deep, dark, and it sounds like absolutely none of that crap played on country radio even though it has country roots.
You got that right!
Those who just don't get subtlety must rely on simplistic comparisons to the obvious. Neko's work just does not fit the mold. Simply beautiful.
I'm so sad that Blixa has left the band. Not sure if the Seeds will ever be the same. But Nick Cave is Nick Cave, a unique artist with a unique poetry. I will always enjoy...
Bill Bill Bill...ma'man ! The past hour or so has just been musical bliss for me. Woah ! Radiohead, Bryan Ferry, Sarah, Beth, U2, Smiths and now PJ...PG...my dear God! Just amazing. Orgasmic...
okay...did I mention that PJ is one of my favorite artist. This song is so powerful. Happy Robbie!
Ahhhhhhhhhh ! Enfin les Negresses Vertes ! Genial !
I just loooooove the original version of this song. This remix is pretty good too, but I really prefer the feel of the original. I give it a 10...just because it's the "Negresses Vertes". :sunny.gif:
Are we related !?!? 'Cause this is my favorite Unkle as well !
