Killing The Killers

Who the hell has done that God-awful cover version of The Killers All These Things That I've Done? It sounds like a half-rap half-dance hybrid and it's bloody terrible.

Yeh what the heck is it?! I saw it on the music channel, and dear me they really have killed it. I think they are claiming its for charity. Dreadful, dreadful cover though.

WHAT? They dare touch my beloved Killers with their evil rap wand! Oh no, I hope I can avoid hearing it.

Christ I haven't heard it, but that is so sad, it's such a brilliant song too.

All These Things That I've Done is just one of those songs that you don't cover... but if you do decide to cover it, you definitely don't change it.

Here's the dreaded thing..

And seriously, could Pixie Lott's smug mug be on anything else?! Why is she everywhere.

Anyway, the cover is dreadful, so dreadful.

It's for charity which automatically means it can be total shit but you're NOT ALLOWED to slag it off or you're a bad person etc.

Appreciate the cause, but what a horrible effort :-/

This just isn't a song that you cover, as I said in my last post. I'm sure anybody who is a fan of the killers - especially those who've seen this song live - will understand where I'm coming from... It's too special to be shredded to pieces like this.

It's like taking the mona lisa, cutting it into bits, then prit sticking it back together and scribbling on a moustache and glasses.

God thats awful, thats the first time I've heard that. I know its for charity and everything, but that still doesn't excuse its awfulness. And on a side note, but why does VV Brown always have the exact same hairstyle? Its getting a bit boring.

That is BS. Lots of people slagged off the last band aid track

Totally agree there. There are some songs which should never be covered and this is one of them. It's not even a good cover.

Oh nooo!!! One of my favourite Killers song has been officially ruined!

Think they're saying 'just hold on' to give it a little more hope or they genuinely don't know the lyrics?

Double post. Sorry.

The trouble here is that Hot Fuss is just such a great record that any covers of it would be cringe-worthy.
