A world of yes. I too encountered this song in high school -- somebody had the CD reissue of the 7 inch and passed it around. I made a tape copy, as one did in those days, and listened to it until I Was Goth.

Wow. You really nailed that intro!
Quick story: my high school girlfriend was obsessed with this song. She once played it on a loop for 54 hours straight (CD players had just become affordable and that repeat button was just too much for her to resist). When I came over to see her she was a little..... frayed. She really wasn't much of a goth, but she loved this song and the movie The Hunger. Okay, so maybe she was a little bit of a goth.

Cover of one of my favourite RPMers. Tried to just make it different and have fun with it. This was definitely one of the stand out tunes this year. Didn't even want to touch it as a cover but I could not help myself. Hope Wilsun likes it…
Written and recorded as part of our family RPM project this year. :-D
13 year old Jasmine on vocals and ukulele.
We wrote and recorded 10 songs under the name Cattica. It was just the best month of lockdown imaginable.

I love surf music complete with Fender guitars dripping in lots of spring reverb. This one came out of the clear blue and somehow developed the double-naught spy thing in the process.
Matt plays lead. He's got the surf thing down pat!
Achingly beautiful... love the laid back acoustic feel, gentle acoustic riffing and gentle violin. My favorite track on the album. Very well deserved to be the showcase track in the middle of the album.
Comments on wilsun's stuff
Niiiiiiiiice.
Yup. I very much am liking this year's RPM album from you. Loving that you cranked this out in two days! The energy is OUTSTANDING.
Dang. I might like this version even more!
Oooooohhhh. Love this from the opening notes!
Very cool song, love vocals on the end! Tamb addition was lovely!
Those guitars harmonizing with each other are pretty sweet! This is the best thing I have heard on this platform so far!
A balls to the wall Christmas to you too
Well... now we are going to need a punk album out of you.
Now there’s the fanciest danciest tune of all! Love it!!
A world of yes. I too encountered this song in high school -- somebody had the CD reissue of the 7 inch and passed it around. I made a tape copy, as one did in those days, and listened to it until I Was Goth.
A very cool soundscape here. Nicely done.

One from back in the day ….. you’ve done a good job with it
You've started using a different approach with your vocals and I really like it.
This is spectacular. The raw emotion really comes through.
this is fun, put a smile on my face!
I'm not familiar with the Manics, but, this jams, nice job Wilsun!
Oh man. I love this voice out of you. MORE OF THIS!!!!!
oooohhh. Love the dark, mysterious vibe. I'm a huge OMD fan. You did this justice.
Great tune! Love the jangly guitar vibes and cool Eno-esque backing synths. Reminds me of James "Laid" style stuff. Thanks for sharing.

Great singing and love the fuzzy guitar sound!
Catchy AF! Love the guitar sound.
Brilliant! Probably the shortest 10 song album in the history of everything.
Emotive and wistful... great cover version!
The two songs wonderfully complement each other. Great, passionate vocals. Love the bubbling synth sound.
Love the indie laid back vibe! Wonderful vocals and guitars. I'm honored, thanks for the cover!
Not mangled at all! Captures the spirit of the song but with an L17 twist. I'm honored, thank you!
This sounds amazing! I'm so honored for the cover, thank you!
Chill, ambient, and captivating album! Well done!
Super catchy and a wonderful voice!
Awesome outro.
Great surf-rock double single! This one is groovy as heck.
Great surf-rock double single! This one reminds me of "Cecilia Ann."
Very groovy.
Definitely a toe-tapper!
Emotional and beautiful. Great atmosphere and arrangements. An epic and magnificent accomplishment.
Great guitar playing and groovy vibe!

An unsettling, disjointed track... the disoriented feeling matches the subject matter.
A little social commentary about current times? Nice, laid back groovy track that turns into a dancy, synthy outro.
