Even though I think people should make their own music, these are really good, especially the last half.
Cheers Peter

 Quite impressive replication of the studio version (minus the violin) :) The studio is still the best for me. The second half is a bit more energetic like the live versions though !

Before writing your own stuff you start by doing someone else music.
And playing someone else music is what happens to the vast majority of musicians, . Not everybody is multi talented... Some are only good at writing, others at playing, and some can do both.

To be back to this cover I find it quite good. Especially if you put the screen off, only the sound, I think the instrumental part can fool  many people...

Wonderful!!
I know not everybody is a fan but I think this is another good demonstration of how useful and great sounding modern electronic drum kits can be :)
Very nice tones all round.
Hey, i`ve got a truffle dog - finally a song the ordinary man can relate too!

Note for note copy but really, really good IMHO.

yes that is really something we were trying to accomplish, getting real close to the original and the live versions. For example the ending solo is insipred by some live versions, but thank you very much

Great cover! This definitely is not an easy one to play. When you play this live, it is hard to get smoothly going.

I currently listen to it once every single day, that's smell of being back to fall 2000 :wave

I remember the day I got the cd and put it in my player. I could not believe how much straitish Mark sounded on that one.
