Scootray Posted October 29, 2006 Report Share Posted October 29, 2006 So, they're releasing a cover of a song called "The Saint's are Coming".I just had a listen to it, and it sucks. I mean sucks badly.Decide for yourselves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Posted October 29, 2006 Report Share Posted October 29, 2006 No actually, what the shizzle is this for?The song was part of a joint set they did at a new orleans benefit show.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SjfpEXMzTrM&NRGuess they're releasing the song to raise more money for katrina victims or something.

Old Gold Posted October 29, 2006 Report Share Posted October 29, 2006 You've got to admire how quickly they've responded to the tragic event in New Orleans. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alkaline Posted October 29, 2006 Report Share Posted October 29, 2006 You've got to admire how quickly they've responded to the tragic event in New Orleans.Hahahahahahahaha Maybe they were just so cut up about it that it took them so long to openly voice their true feelings and felt that the only way they could truely do that was to brutally murder (as some sort of bizarre metaphor) a good song :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Neubeatz Posted October 29, 2006 Report Share Posted October 29, 2006 Is that Green Day's cred finished here now then? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Stax Posted October 29, 2006 Report Share Posted October 29, 2006 Is that Green Day's cred finished here now then?I thought it was already...Skids are were a fucking great band. Took me a second or two to place the original song which is embarrasing from a 'skids fan back in my day' point of view!www.youtube.com/watch?v=j6KvWq6Ip5sAaaaaah my yoof *looks back with a smile* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Mac Posted October 30, 2006 Report Share Posted October 30, 2006 I love the skids.I'll probably still buy this as i'm a fan and it's for charity but i've not actually heard it yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest bluesxman Posted October 30, 2006 Report Share Posted October 30, 2006 Ahhh, I thought that was an old Skids song going by title, saves me listening to confirm now, don't think I want to hear that. The original's great, what the hell happened to the Skids stuff I had, someone must have 'borrowed' it, grrrr, I have a desire to listen now.....

Justin Posted October 30, 2006 Report Share Posted October 30, 2006 i actually quite like i hate U2 with a passion but i do quite like this! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Mac Posted November 6, 2006 Report Share Posted November 6, 2006 I bought this today to hear what they've done with it.I don't think Bono and Billie Joe's voices work that well to be honest.Still, it's for charity, so money well spent.
