"Nothing's going to change my world."

A bit complacent.

by Nightjar Wed Aug 02, 2023 7:41 pm

Arguably the preposterous cover version in the history of music.

by **The Call of the Wendigo** Wed Aug 02, 2023 7:41 pm

What's the point of this? It's a song that only has a point if you actually believe what you're singing. And he clearly doesn't.

by SiberianPrincess’sMidriff Wed Aug 02, 2023 7:41 pm

Going all Stella Street then.

Bovvie literally trying to sound like 'the wind inside a letterbox' llama

by SiberianPrincess’sMidriff Wed Aug 02, 2023 7:43 pm

Why is he singin' funny?

It's cos Lennon turned up at the studio in NYC when he was recording Young Americans.

The way that Bovvie and Lennon render this song it renders the entire meaning of the lyrics 180 degrees.

Yeah, this feels more like a good song to cover and put on your live album, but a proper studio release?

In the end it just ends up being this pissed up nihilistic raving.

Track 2 - Don't Look Down.

by **The Call of the Wendigo** Wed Aug 02, 2023 7:44 pm

Sounds like a Sting song.

It's the baleful power of Lennon writ large.

by SiberianPrincess’sMidriff Wed Aug 02, 2023 7:45 pm

Don't Look Down

From his lesser album, 2nite.

Genuine Berac theme.

by Nightjar Wed Aug 02, 2023 7:45 pm

The original of this is really great.

This sucks the farts out of a dead dog's arsehole.

by Nightjar Wed Aug 02, 2023 7:46 pm

It's so crap that nobody's even said "authentic/lite reggae" yet.

Possibly my favourite Iggy/Williamson song.

by SiberianPrincess’sMidriff Wed Aug 02, 2023 7:48 pm

I don't know the orginal of this.

Iggy Pop and James Williamson apparently.
