gosh this cover is so old already. it's at the very least 2 or maybe
already 3 years old.

why did it become a cult hit all of a sudden? i hate that, lol. and
i also hate how they try to cash in on it by putting some of their
covers from the past decade onto that 'new' album.

confused

anywho, i think this cover is pretty cool. still think the original
by kate bush is beyond touching though.

oh me too biggrin but i read somewhere that this song became some kind of
overnight hit after being slept on for 3 years by the general public

so my best guess is that it was used on some tv show in the us maybe

thus there was a demand for the song, which is just an obscure bside
anyway and they released that covers album with 10 covers, all of 'm
released already.

No, it really is a good cover,imo. I feel the same way about FutureHeads too. Tori's version, umm.....not so much. lol It seems like I'm just an all out Tori hater right now especially with my bashing of "Big Wheel". lol
