Love Pixies Doolittle album, without a doubt my favorite from them. I really tried to re-imagine this tune but in that spirit I might have gone to far. According to the chart (that I dropped the key of) the chords are B  D  G  but when I got around to the bass part this morning it seems that I played a Bflat instead. Somehow it works for me though.
Started this last night in the car doing the uke and vocals. Did all ipad stuff this morning at the kitchen table. Drums & bass are garageband & auxiliary percussion is DrumJam.

1 uke
3 lead vocals
2 background vocals

You might have gone a bit far, but it was definitely in the right direction! Loved this version, everything hangs together really well and it's really imaginative. I particularly liked the vocals. Very nice work indeed.
