Is this Happy Mondays doing "Ball of Confusion"? Faskinatin'!

Not sure this is good, but it certainly brings something new to the song.

ETA: Survey says it's Love and Rockets. Yah, sounds like them.

VHM Moonlighting.

LN2: the Cure.

Heard the Moonlighting clip recently. Was great then, boring now. I'll give an HM for one of the Cure's most tolerable songs, but it is indeed overplayed.

Interesting.  Of the Cure's hits I find Close to Me one of their least tolerable, but least overplayed.
