Well, I myself was actually expecting the Darkness to redeem themselves when I found that they had done a cover of Street Spirit.

Oh. My. Dear. God.

It destroyed it. It took Street Spirit's greatness, wringed it out, ran over it with a steam roller, thus squeezing every ounce of appeal the original version had, and put it under their name.

Just search for Street Spirit by Darkness to witness it yourself.

I haven't heard it, and I can assure you I won't be seeking it out.

People make me sick - are there any original tunes in todays charts?

Every now and again a cover impresses me, but 99.999999% of the time they are cheap crap thrown together to make a quick buck.

If I was king of the world, things would be mighty different.

I love Radiohead but I think the cover is pretty good. Even Thom Yorke said he enjoyed it.

They (Darkness) asked for a million pounds to do Glastonbury!!

Who the hell do they think they are... only been widely acknowledged for three quarters of a year or so with a few catchy (but ultimately shallow) singles released (Ok the Album was OK) and they think they deserve more than the well loved and time tested bands.

I hope the Darkness bubble bursts soon.
