it`s genius...the best song and best version...i love this song great...great...great!!!

No way!! no one can top The Pixes singing this! :-)

I can hear it every day...this song is so great. I´m a pixies-fan, but i must say the placebo-version is better. :-)

Excellent merci super concert ♥️

placebo sings this song with pure emotion and have a great interesting vocal range and the pixies version well..

better than the orginal...my absolut favourite song...i love it

wow never heard this version before,. placebo are great and did a great song justice

me encanta este cover!!

*LOVE THIS COVER IS SO EMOTIONAL THAN THE ORIGINAL* PLACEBO✌🏻

I love this song :) Its better than the original because Brian Molko has such a unique voice. :( Can't believe Steve left :(

the most important element of a cover version is the enthusiasm the band have for the original song. it's obvious by this performance, placebo fucking love this song. fucking sublime.

No words for this amazing appearance. wonderful wonderful wonderful.

placebo music is cold... the sense is inside lirics. placebo ROX

Brian is beautiful. His features are distinct and I must say angelic o:)

hola.. mm no la habia escuchado. esta buena. me gusto la version de ellos. ya la he escuchado como 6 veces.. ahaha me gusto mucho la cancion bye! = ke en los flog.. e

I asked myself where is my mind,my mind is where Placebo is!

best song ever!!!!!!!!!!!!

@Mellylemba Brian was born in antwerp , which has 4 prominent languages , ranging from french to flemish and even dutch , antwerp is a beautiful city and its only fitting it should be recognised as an influence early in his life but not the sole influence

i LOVE this song coz its in my face movie!

awesome

Great song ^^

i love it when people like darknessdedora show their level of intelligence. genius

(L))))) fabulous love it love placebo

he's beautiful..

Une des plus belles voix du rock

placebo just in live! and in first line!

Placebo is epic band.

i love it

absolutely

Hey Mirta thanks for your post I'm one of that people who appreciate the effort and I'm think is a great cover Thanks for your opinion ;)

I think so, too. They should record it because to me it was better than both versions.

When they performed this song live with the lead singer of the pixies, it was fucking awesome.

tiempo sin escuchar esta canción, y por Placebo? Nice xD

True.

I think this is a good version of this song. I prefer the Pixies version, but that's likely because it's been a fav of mine for years. This one is still good though :)

Absolutely awesome! Placebo are f**** great.... Loserbiotch2, I didn`t know The Black Eyed Peas sounded so good live! I`ll see you at their next gig then!

I adore Placebo *_*

Colocaram de novo ,massa

all to the shed go

Placebo!

waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay out in the water see it swimmin

@VictimDead its Xavior Rodes the sailorman he used to be a part of the band with Bill Lydon year ago

They f*ckin rock.

this song is by ''THE DUST BROTHERS''

right. the point that i tried to make was that they are not emo. yeah their music is alternative.

yes they did. slowly. (?)

GEILE SAU DER BRIAN

One of the best versions I think, better than the pixies version

Lets get one thing clear, no cover is 'better' than the original... done. Now, i don't particularly like Placebo but this sounds awesome and they are incredible live.

I love you Brian Molko

Damn, he sounds like he's singing on karaoke. Its like the original "Sweet Dreams" then you've got the Marilyn Manson version.

tru dat

Omg omg omg omg

pixies aren't better, they're different! and they make this song unique, i mean listen to his voice!!! its incredible!!!

i luv placebo, their version is much better then the original, to my mind. all their covers are fuckin' awesome.

I dare you, honestly, to even try to hit some of the notes that Brian can hit. Dare you.

come on, even placebo would freely admit that the Pixies are head and shoulders above them. every band admits that, because the pixies were the best and most influential band of the latter half of the 20th century.

@Doki66 I relate to what you're saying, but I like both of the versions. The original is more deep and kind of sets in a dark mood, and this version is really more vivid and light. So I think that it depends on my mood whether I'll listen to Placebos or The Pixies version. Still, the credit for this song should go to The Pixies, and bashing the original version is disgraceful.

you are rigth my friend! Bryan´s voice make it different !!!

they've got nothing on the pixies.

because they can

... way out in the water see her swimming

the singer is playing on a SG

6 sta 5

Grosses Tennis !

I agree, the Pixies version is so much better

love this song... the pixies started it... but placebo does it better...

It is you who is off.. Influential does not mean popular! Influential means how much they influenced rock music (bands etc). In fact it is said that not many people were listening to the pixies, bust most of them went on to start a band. Among music artists it is admitted openly that pixies were one of the most influential bands

No the SG is red i think

Actually "Deadsanta", his accent is south east London mixed with American. He's not trying to restart the Glam scene either, simply giving fantastic bands ie Pixies, T-Rex credit. Anyway, you are in no place to say what music you find crap listening to shite like Laika and the Cosmonauts.

when?

in the bottle ??

maybe, but your oppinion does not bother them at all :)) please don't take this as a rude comment

dude they massacred it

@tomsummerbluebyrne Simple: Better guitars, better voice. I like the orig too, and this song came decades ahead of its time But Placebo just do it better

Anyway, if you don't like a band, don't search for them!

did they die

je trouve que placebo la chante mieu pixies!!

placebo it's alternative, MCR is EMO

I love Placeboooooooooooo but to be honest the original version is better :D:D:DD:D anyway I prefer Placebo... hehehehehe

@SANDROBOTICHELI jesus no, Placebo are awsome, but their cover isn't better than the original. Still awsome tho.

nice but not as nice as the originell altoughb great work

and there's nothing in it

good cover but cant touch the pixies.

Hey! I Give you the space to leave comments but please don't take offenses to people who this band. I'm not gay, but i respect the people who is, is they're problem you know?, and if don't like Placebo don't say that they're EMO that's NO TRUE, If you have 26 years, can you respect people who thinks different ... can you?

Apology accepted. Now, in musical terms 'better' is not very plausible. In this version, sure the singer has a better vocal range and the instruments sound great... but in my opinion The Pixies have the perfect style for these kind of songs, they are a little off and a little rusty, but they play their hearts out and that's what makes them unique.

placebo it's not emo is alternative

funny.. you call them the most influential band of he latter half of the 20th century.. how is that, when so many people dont even know pixies, and if they do its only from fight club.. i cant se the thread here!? dont get me wrong, i like pixies, but you're a little off..

u can not call placebo emo... if u do u have to grow up.. and listen to more music...placebo ruleaza.(punct)...i don't listen that much but ... they make good music and they are not emo

Ma che c'entra -_-
