When shall Cliffton Richard arise?

(cont.) Incredible Talent, but just not Exit Music.Some might argue that no song is ever meant to play only one way. And some might argue a song should only be played like the artist meant it to be played. But I say if you can play someone elses song almost note for note and generate a completely different emotion to the listener, then you know what you're doing. But as far as a cover goes I think no matter that you add in for yourself it should always have the same feel.

Guitar25667 is right by saying that putting your own twist in is what makes it a cover. If they copied it note for note I'd certianly have a thing or 2 to say. BUT on the other hand I agree Jaemoon2 because the 2nd half of the song wasn't even recognizable as Exit Music. With MAYBE the exception of some of the chord progressions. This song's Beauty certainly is in it's simplicity and once it lost that haunting feeling of contemplation it should no longer be called a cover. Kudos to the group tho

This is by no means a simple song in the first place. I understand that is your opinion, but I fucking love both versions.

the purpose of covering a song is to put your own personal twist on it, so you cant say they messed with it too much. this is awesome

As my favorite song in the world (really), and despite the fact that I am also a huge jazz fan, I had to give it one star. It played around with it TOO much. The song's genius is in it's simplicity. Sorry. (Good playing but not listening.)

Sounded sloppy at parts. This is why jazz really does my head in sometimes.

A comma is missing after "to the original" lol

Hahaha, cool ending! I like covers that are different from the original version, covers that make you feel something different ('cause if you want to feel the same thing, listen to the original freackin fanatics). Long life to Radiohead.
