I would like to get some comments on this one. It's obviously quite different from the original. Some people might be outraged  :o

Not me mate. I really like this version. Really different.
I particularly like the keyboards & the whole alternative feel.

Incidentally SoundCloud is working for me Ok.

Hey, SlySwell, yeah, way to go!  8)
Now that's inventive. A definite individual take. Well done.
And Soundcloud works for me too.

Holy man this is fun and inventive.  What a fab cover, no outrage from me, just admiration.  I love it when a cover takes the song in a different direction.  Well done.

I also love to take a cover and overhaul it and that's exactly what you've done. I dig it,do I hear influences of Beck and Ween in there, whatever, you really made it you own. Slyly done!
Rock on!

i  haven't heard about ween before. I'll have to look for them on youtube.

what inspired me to record the song this way is an interview i heard ozzy osbourne in which he said that the wanted to be like the beatles when he was young.It gave me the idea to record Paranoid with a pop feel.


thanks again for all the nice comments guys.
