Great version live on Jools Holland here. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=jU25JV3kEcw Decent days and nights reminds me of early mornings with the kids cos it was used on CBBC or Nick junior os something. Cracking tune as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pilko Posted April 7, 2022 Share Posted April 7, 2022 (edited) The Futureheads Hounds of Love cover is exceptional and don't think it's a mistake to be talking about it as one of the best ever. More recently, The Fratellis cover of Yes Sir I Can Boogie (despite being bastardised as a Scottish football anthem) is one I'd stick up there in the conversation.

Chris_R Posted April 7, 2022 Share Posted April 7, 2022 The correct answer to "best cover" is Wuthering Heights by China Drum. Bonus marks for them being a Geordie band that nobody will have heard of... https://youtu.be/OBviQXfuu3c Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're a band from the 90s, not sure if they're even still going. They did some really good stuff, John Peel featured them on Radio 1 and they toured America with Green Day but just failed to break through to the big time.
