grrclark Posted May 1, 2016 Report Share Posted May 1, 2016 I heard it the other day and it didn't sit well with me. In fairness I was being a really crabbit ****** on the day I heard it so maybe my grumpiness did it little justice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TIGHTCHOKE Posted May 2, 2016 Report Share Posted May 2, 2016 Heard it several times, far prefer the original, Paul Simon can at least sing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rimfire4969 Posted May 2, 2016 Report Share Posted May 2, 2016 My sister inlaw played it me some weeks ago, I love it. If you have a look at YouTube you can hear some of their other stuff and see what they look like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scully Posted May 2, 2016 Report Share Posted May 2, 2016 I think it's excellent; one for my phone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fielddweller Posted May 2, 2016 Report Share Posted May 2, 2016 (edited) According to Radio 2 Paul Simon emailed them with his approval. Can't understand people who do covers and just replicate the original. Love this one.

tweedledee Posted May 2, 2016 Report Share Posted May 2, 2016 Can't beat the original! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keg Posted May 2, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 2, 2016 The lead singer looked nothing like i expected! I love both versions but this cover is so different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
norfolk dumpling Posted May 2, 2016 Report Share Posted May 2, 2016 Fantastic cover. Also hooked on Jamie Lawson ('wasn't expecting that') - an incredible composition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Les*1066 Posted May 2, 2016 Report Share Posted May 2, 2016 They remind me of a modern-day version of Black Sabbath. Great stuff! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danger-Mouse Posted May 2, 2016 Report Share Posted May 2, 2016 My first reaction was OMG No! But actually, it`s not bad at all. Very different from the original which is not a bad thing in a cover version. Also listened to their Land of Confusion cover. Excellent video for that.

Cranfield Posted May 2, 2016 Report Share Posted May 2, 2016 The lead singer looked nothing like i expected! I think the name "Disturbed" certainly fits the lead singer, definitely better to listen to than watch IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duckandswing Posted May 2, 2016 Report Share Posted May 2, 2016 I've listened to it a few times, and also the original. I think they are both very different but equally awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
four-wheel-drive Posted May 2, 2016 Report Share Posted May 2, 2016 I found it the other day that guy has got a good voice I like it not as much as the Paul and arts version I do hate it when people do a cover of a song and do it almost the same as the first one I just do not see the point in that I give this one a 10 out of 10.

figgy Posted May 2, 2016 Report Share Posted May 2, 2016 Too much shouty heavy metal type stuff for me. The original is sung with feeling this cover is sung with anger. As covers go it's good if that gravelly shouty voice is your thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

secretagentmole Posted May 2, 2016 Report Share Posted May 2, 2016 My first reaction was OMG No! But actually, it`s not bad at all. Very different from the original which is not a bad thing in a cover version. Also listened to their Land of Confusion cover. Excellent video for that. As far as I can recall this is not far from the original! Anyway as far as covers go I prefer this! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fabhui Posted May 2, 2016 Report Share Posted May 2, 2016 Don't like it but I also don't like the original either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordon R Posted May 2, 2016 Report Share Posted May 2, 2016 (edited) I don't see what the fuss is about, I think it is mediocre at best. Just heard Billy Ocean covering the Four Tops "Simple Game" - Levi Stubbs he isn't. I winced when Louise and then Take That covered the Average White Band's "Let's go round again". Some songs should be left alone, as any cover is always going to be second best. Edited May 2, 2016 by Gordon R Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keg Posted May 2, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 2, 2016 We are all individuals, if we all liked the same stuff, it would be boring. As far as I can recall this is not far from the original!
