Why does no one appreciate the bass and drum work, at very least, they employ here? It's a cover, they blend their sound with the original. They did a great job, imo, and context matters.
One time, while seeing Pitchshifter live... I yelled for them to play this cover. They declined, but did say that the song "Condescension" was for me. I'm OK with that.
This is a very interesting cover as it's taking a song from a genre which was a reaction against punk and reworks it as a punk song... and it works quite well. Good job, boys!
We're only making plans for Nigel We only want what's best for him We're only making plans for Nigel Nigel just needs that helping hand And if young Nigel says he's happy He must be happy He must be happy He must be happy in his work We're only making plans for Nigel He has his future in a British steel We're only making plans for Nigel Nigel's whole future is as good as sealed, yeah And if young Nigel says he's happy He must be happy He must be happy He must be happy in his work Nigel is not outspoken But he likes to speak And loves to be spoken to (in his world) Nigel is happy in his work (in his world) Nigel is happy in his work (in his world) We're only making plans for Nigel We only want what's best for him We're only making plans for Nigel Nigel just needs this helping hand And if young Nigel says he's happy He must be happy He must be happy He must be happy in his work We're only making plans for Nigel We only want what's best for him We're only making plans for Nigel Nigel just needs this helping hand We're only making plans for Nigel He has his future in a British steel Steel, steel, steel, steel, steel, yeah yeah We're only making plans for Nigel Nigel, Nigel, Nigel, Nigel Nigel, Nigel, Nigel, Nigel Nigel, Nigel, Nigel, Nigel Nigel, Nigel, Nigel, Nigel
Why can anybody try to cover a song if he wont respect its harmony´s soul. Obviously Pitchs found the original song very cool and mainly pretty...and then they did this...well, people this days, you know.
I will agree with you that everyone's got their own individual preferences. However, I don't see why disliking this version is a cliche, unless you are saying this is a commonly shared opinion. Having expressed this view I am unlikely to juste [sic] enjoy the trac [sic].
I beg to differ..... Mista David Bullox..... that's a tad cliche.... Besides, everyone's got their own individual preferences..... Shall we say. Juste enjoy the trac & stop bickerin.....!!!
I usually like covers when they bring something new to the original, in this case I don't. Pitchshifter have taken a great song and made it flat and rather dull.

Its pretty cool tbf
La mejor versión de esta tema a nivel musical demasiado brutal este trabajo!
Best version of this track ever
The greatest cover ever recorded - all you old fashioned Punks get over it. I speak as someone who saw the Pistols in 77 so don't even go there.
Es la mejor versión sin dudas!!
You should give the Burning Heads cover a try... ua-cam.com/video/udNQSyp7Nj8/v-deo.htmlsi=al_S82dnCoTl7Av7

zsantschi was it ever actually played live...?
@@mjbdvp Yes, they played it in the encore, when I saw them in 1999.
Heard this on a free Metal Hammer cd aged 13 back in '99. Love it! I only know this version.
Metal Hammer... love that magazine!!!!
+carlos Hernandez 1998 Metal Hammer UK
Fuck yeah! Some of my favourite tracks of all time were on there! What it's like, Everlast was on one
I remember those cd's. Got me into these guys, fear factory, OMS, so much good stuff back then.
Same!!!
Thatcher-era angst reworked for the Blair generation. 'shifter were my jam at school.
Looking back now pitschifter were better than appreciated

Great summary
Best cover I have heard for this song.
justcallme... best cover of any song period 🤟🏻
Agreed, just scrapes past Pimus's
Bandersnatch reminded me of the original. Then I remembered Pitchshifter did a cover.
Brilliant Cover!!!
Fokking Great Cover !!!! Love it
This is hands down the best cover of this song
We're only making plans for Nigel
We only want what's best for him
We're only making plans for Nigel
Nigel just needs that helping hand
And if young Nigel says he's happy
He must be happy
He must be happy
He must be happy in his work
We're only making plans for Nigel
He has his future in a British steel
We're only making plans for Nigel
Nigel's whole future is as good as sealed, yeah
And if young Nigel says he's happy
He must be happy
He must be happy
He must be happy in his work
Nigel is not outspoken
But he likes to speak
And loves to be spoken to (in his world)
Nigel is happy in his work (in his world)
Nigel is happy in his work (in his world)
We're only making plans for Nigel
We only want what's best for him
We're only making plans for Nigel
Nigel just needs this helping hand
And if young Nigel says he's happy
He must be happy
He must be happy
He must be happy in his work
We're only making plans for Nigel
We only want what's best for him
We're only making plans for Nigel

Steel, steel, steel, steel, steel, yeah yeah
We're only making plans for Nigel
Nigel, Nigel, Nigel, Nigel
Nigel, Nigel, Nigel, Nigel

World not work
When it satrted I though it was an insult... Then, when the bass started, I really like it
Fucken bad ass.
Best music 2019
Brilliant version ❤
I like both Pitchshifter and XTC. Good effort but prefer the original.
Excellent.
This is a bad ass video
why can't i find this on spotify?
Great cover 👍🏼
Superb cover
Where do I get it?
Gran cancion y que pelicula...mamitaaa
awesome song...
Is Nigel the same guy from Electric Six's Synthesizer?
this is cool. :)
awesome version
Nigel does a killer Robot
Pretty cool
Nice cover. Even better with the adidas tshirt in video. :-)
Nigel is happy happy happy
Colin Moulding wrote this, not AP.
its a good version. love pitchshifter - from my home town - but its not the best version. check out the Primus' take on this - nuts !
Primus version isn't as good as this one I don't think
I love the Primus version
I could be, but that's irrelevant. This is definitely better than the original.
i think it's about good-will-hypocrisy
Reminds me of something from encino man
this is a pretty good cover. If you dont like it hit alt+F$
buena cancion!
Best version ever.

Different version for sure, but legit. Primus is my favorite band, but check out Headlights version.
Ha

Oh... So much better than Primus! Excuse me I gotta break some shit
Саундтрек к моей жизни)
No...
How to take a brilliant iconic song and murder it.
Oh, how the mighty have fallen.
F4*
I rather like this... Prefer the original though
soizic de st john rosse opinion not valid
@@lifeisdoingok6788 ... but it is vaild!
I beg to differ..... Mista David Bullox..... that's a tad cliche.... Besides, everyone's got their own individual preferences..... Shall we say. Juste enjoy the trac & stop bickerin.....!!!
I love PS, but saying this cover is better than XTC's original is plain dumb.
I usually like covers when they bring something new to the original, in this case I don't. Pitchshifter have taken a great song and made it flat and rather dull.
Great video, not a great cover.
the original is far better
Well that was terrible. This song needs to be at a slow grooving tempo to be enjoyed.
Oh yeah i remember XTC. They really sucked. GOOD SHOW PS
this version sucks....
Not good at all.
XTC sucks.
As an xtc fan, this is woeful
As a fan of music this fuckin rocks 🤟🏻🤟🏻
