Batfastard Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 Has anybody heard the Nick Pride and the Pimptones version? What is your opinion on it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xgsjx Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 I quite like it for what it is. Good bass line with a cheesy 60s poptastic sound. It's far better than anything by anyone who just does a straight up tribute cover of a song. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Batfastard Posted February 11, 2013 Author Share Posted February 11, 2013 I heard it saturday and thought that the song hadbeen ruined, the vocals were awful and it sounded lifeless Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xgsjx Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 I don't think they've ruined it. Made it different, yes. It's not a patch on the original (& it's one of the few MA songs I sometimes skip), but I think it's better than just playing it the same as the original.

Batfastard Posted February 11, 2013 Author Share Posted February 11, 2013 The MA one just had an energy to it whereas the the pimptones version sounds like they were bored in the studio and just bolted parts around the vocals and bass line Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
