Was going to do this yesterday but didn’t have time before Frej seized the computer! My favourite versions! (Shane McGowan one is going to be second on the list after the original now…!) It is so good! It seems you can only buy it in the UK & Eire?? So you should if you’re there! I will instead then watch the video over and over. EDIT: found you can buy it here. But here are the other ones I love.
Screaming Jay Hawkins
Marilyn Manson
First version I heard of course, being a total little mansonite.
And someone’s made a really gorgeous video for it aswell!
Nina Simone
Joe Cocker
The Birthday Party
(not really a favourite.… but it’s Nick so I have to put it on my list anyhow!!!)
Karin!
The single is available INTERNATIONALLY!
Check IRL Records’ site for links:
http://www.irl.org.uk/ (there is Sweden too)
or experiment with your local amazon, itunes and such on your own.
Good luck!
And spread the word among others who’d like to download it but dont know how :)
Yeah I already linked to irl.org.uk up there! Found it just after posting the entry… :) Will buy it & hope that others will aswell!
ÅH! Alltså, originalet med hay hawkins är så fruktansvärt bra att jag inte vet var jag ska ta vägen. Marilyn Mansons har jag lyssnat på en hel del också och nu ska jag lyssna på de andra! Spännande, med en så sjukt bra låt.
