Anyone heard this yet? A pretty good cover, better than the Wallflowers IMO...

Binger

That's really, really, really....not good.

Hollowgen

i like it. starts off dull, but maybe a higher quality play would change my mind.

is this/will this be on a compilation or official release?

Supermallet

Anything would be better than the Wallflowers' limp cover. Then again, nothing will be as good as the original, imo.

RagingBull80

I like it.

Where did it come from?

Liver&Onions

yeah, the quality of that was pretty poor - on the radio yesterday sounded much better. It's from an upcoming War Child benefit disc i believe.

RagingBull80

Cool, thanks.

Hixx

Cool, not mind blowing or anything, but pretty sweet for a throw away cover.

Numanoid

Sorry, that was awful.

The orchestration, singing, etc. isn't that bad. But the recording quality is worse than concert footage recorded on a cellphone.

MrE

Very nice cover. Much stronger rhythmically even than Bowie's IMO. Thanks for the heads up, OP.
