    Jon I love how you don't just make straight forward rock covers - it's so easy for bands to make punk or rock covers just by speeding the songs up and adding plenty of guitar and drums, but I really like how you actually think about how to make your covers original, and how you use your knowledge of music to bring something knew to well known songs - it's why I subscribed to you in the first place (actually, it was because you did Under The Sea in a paddling pool with a tie and a beanie). Love the way you sang this one too - awesome cover :D

    @bernardus666 6 років тому +45

    Now and then I think of when we were together
    Like when you said you felt so happy you could die
    Told myself that you were right for me
    But felt so lonely in your company
    But that was love and it's an ache I still remember
    You can get addicted to a certain kind of sadness
    Like resignation to the end, always the end
    So when we found that we could not make sense
    Well you said that we would still be friends
    But I'll admit that I was glad it was over
    But you didn't have to cut me off
    Make out like it never happened and that we were nothing
    And I don't even need your love
    But you treat me like a stranger and that feels so rough
    No, you didn't have to stoop so low
    Have your friends collect your records and then change your number
    I guess that I don't need that though
    Now you're just somebody that I used to know
    Now you're just somebody that I used to know
    Now you're just somebody that I used to know
    Now and then I think of all the times you screwed me over
    But had me believing it was always something that I'd done
    But I don't wanna live that way
    Reading into every word you say
    You said that you could let it go
    And I wouldn't catch you hung up on somebody that you used to know
    But you didn't have to cut me off
    Make out like it never happened and that we were nothing
    And I don't even need your love
    But you treat me like a stranger and that feels so rough
    No, you didn't have to stoop so low
    Have your friends collect your records and then change your number
    I guess that I don't need that though
    Now you're just somebody that I used to know
    Somebody (I used to know)
    (Somebody) Now you're just somebody that I used to know
    Somebody (I used to know)
    (Somebody) Now you're just somebody that I used to know
    I used to know, that I used to know, I used to know somebody

      I actually enjoy it, I think the original conveys more of the ache and sadness, whereas this version conveys the rage of being played with. I like both versions, though I agree with one part: The cover is better then the original, but that doesn't mean the original is bad.
