One of my favorite songwriters covering one of my favorite songwriters... :)

Minimalistic (and spooky) electronic arrangement, but you make it work! Always loved those "bah-bah-you"s, and glad they made it into your vocals. Maybe a little less sarcastic than sinister!  8)

"Dear God" is my favourite XTC song. Great lyrics. Great video too. I also like "Senses Working Overtime" and "Making Plan for Nigel". Don't know too many others.

Quote from: SharksDontSleep on February 12, 2013, 03:13:14 PMShe-It. Was this really done with a Kaossilator?

Very different from the original, but very good all the same.
I often use the iKaossilator on my iPad & have wondered whether I should go for the real thing.
Mind you the hole in my wallet after Xmas is still to be repaired ... So maybe not!!

Cool Song

i have the old one but the new one looks pretty cool and you can plug guitars and stuff into it now
