It seems even the BBC have now heard of this group and especially this song, yeah it's been out a while, you could call it a one hit wonder if they wern't mega famous already, but this tune sure hit's the spot....

A favourite, still think the original is hard to beat. This one runs pretty close his voice is compelling.

I'll look out for that, will be interesting to hear what he has to say. It's amazing how many covers pee all over original versions (Disclaimer: opinions vary).

Just for the record I prefer the original, not dissing nobody!
Although I prefer Daltrey's version of Giving It All Away.

I heard this cover recently, and though it was excellent. Not many cover versions even do justice to the original, but this is one of the few that are maybe better that the first. I would say, The Simon and Garfunkel version is a favourite of mine, along with many others of theirs, but this has more balls. Not sure if that word is allowed, but I dunno how better to describe it. A bit like Eloise by Paul and Barry Ryan or The Damned. The cover being better 'cos it has more of what I said above. although that's real bad miming......

A different approach, I think.
But a much gutsier take, still doing justice with the The Damned.
