If I had a pound for every time I played this I could probably buy a very nice Gibson, but I would love to have done it just like this. I bet this was closer to how it was written.

Nice take on a great cover.

Nice job Andrew! I really like the laid back feel to it. Your voice is especially good. Great cover of a great song.

Nice!

Passionate, emotional, gripping, and huge - all words found in my dictionary to describe this. Thanks, Andrew. G:)

Great vocals! and a real FEEL version of a great tune ...

a really really nice retelling of a great song!! your vocal and playing is so rich

Epic, your vocals are quite theatrical (in a good way) :)

Back again....

This would bring the room down! Set it on fire! Killer!

..dynamic vocal and slowed down bluesy essence..don't know why you bother with all the other instrumentation when you breath life into a song the way you do with just a bit of plunkin' 'n' gruntin' ..excellent..

One of my favorite songs too! I like how you belted it out. That's the ticket. You can feel the grit in there. Well Done!

Epicly awesome! Great hook! Great lines! No stinker! G:)

Getting into the groove. Quality across the board! Cheers, A! G:)

Hi Andrew, another winner. This has it all, vocals,playing and production. Love it.

Right up my street,alley,passage or whatever interconnecting construct passes my crib.....nice one ...love the bouncy tempo and the gravelly vox....Paolo Nutini who?........

Her hunting crop....love the lyrics...;)

well, i agree with much of what has already be said,, this is realllly a great piece of rock!! very well done and recorded,, very clear love listening to all the parts r

Hey, really rocking tune! I love the leads especially the dueling guitars. Great melody and nice backing vox.

Awesome!

Sounds summery to me.... off to find the other one

I'm liking the kinda sparse but cluttered vibe I'm getting from this. Yep, dirty, that describes it well. And that ominous but bouncy synth motif... Yeah, nice one.

Summery - check, Duran Duran - check, Cow Bell- check, all present and correct :) Cool sounds. I was at university, in a rock/metal band, writing songs with titles like "Daughter Of The Pharoahs" ("You've got the looks of your motherrr... Stained with the blood of your brotherrrr") .... I liked Duran Duran, but the dudes I was with would not be convinced that "catchy" was a good thing... Funnily enough, I found a photo a while back - I was the only one who would have looked out of place in a Duran Duran photoshoot!!

I'm about to get called into a zoom meeting for work... I'll be back for the rest after

I've always imagined you younger than me. But if you were doing this in 77 (I was 14 and in a choir, and writing songs about Garden Gnomes), then obviously not! This is mighty cool stuff for back then... wow

Oh yes. I'm liking this big time. A: Sweet song. B: That guitar... whoa... Luther Perkins lives on...

It would be a good track for running, yep. But we (me and Mrs R) wondered if you could shorten it a bit for us, don't think we could run for that long :)

My wife went "I like the bird picture" when I was looking at the latest playlists, explaining that if I uploaded all the ones I've got ready then I'd hog the top of the front page so that's why I'm waiting.... I said that picture's Djörk - wow... haven't heard Djörk music for ages... I'm educating her now :) Hope you're ok in these interesting times.

... oh I'd forgotten the guitars coming in at the 4 minute or so mark! :)

I'm just a guitars and sore fingers kinda guy really... but you synthy-guys are begining to get to me... I'm starting to understand! (My wife's gonna kill you all if I start buying keyboards too!!)

This is, indeed, amazing. This time I'm hearing it on the big stereo in the living room... with the sound turned down on the TV... and there were a lot of images of a young Heinrich Himmler going by... not sure if the two were meant to fit together so well... but they did

And this... I've listened before, favourited, but didn't comment... not sure why I didn't... both listens have grabbed me all the way through to the last note... the strings in the middle are gorgeous...

Wow... just wow... had it on the big stereo... and.... wow

You had me with "If I start by making a better me / It will help to make a better we" ... I was listening without reading what it was about. In fact, I didn't make the connection until after I had finished the first listen. But it was "wooooo" ... You've created a song that gets to the heart of a thing without being tied to the thing that made the writer write it... that's magical... I agree with Greg - it's an anthem... wow... many thanks for saying what many of us think, feel, and wanted to say....

Woah... Superb

The Guiness drinkers owe it to themselves to listen to this, favourite it, and... have another Guiness. The less enlightened need to start drinking Guiness... but remember, everyone, that "alcohol is not a coping mechanism"... doesn't actually apply to Guiness, obviously (because it counts towards your 5 A Day, same as Red Wine and Potato Chips)

Love it!!!

Oh yeah... gorgeous harmonica sounds.

Oh yeah! Like it. Welcome.

Nice one. I'm getting an 1812 overture sort of vibe out of it... especially with the triumphant end that, yeah, hasn't actually happened yet... but who's counting?(!)
