    LYRICS:
    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 that 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
    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 and then I think of all the times you screwed me over
    But had me believing it was always something that I'd done
    And 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
    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
    I used to know
    That I used to know
    Somebody...

    Brilliant as always. Can't really call it a cover though - it's a total reworking - which is a good thing. Pretty much all of Violet's "covers" aren't; which is what sets her (and the artists she works with) apart from other (also talented) cover artists.

      I noticed that too about her. She makes them her own.

      Just curious but why do you think changing the style up stops it being a cover. The words are the same, the tune is the same.

      @@DarthAxolotl If you pay attention to the chords, there are some weird and unsettling intervals there, courtesy of Melodicka Bros. This gives a very different vibe to the meaning of the words.
      The words are the same, the tune is almost the same, but a bit uncanny, and if you watch the video closely, you will see that this song is about a murder. The original is about a breakup.
      There are some very subtle differences that are woven into the fabric of the song that alter its core.
      Granted, that's my interpretation, but based on the pinned comment, I think my interpretation is close to the intended effect by the artists.

    Everyone thought this song was overdone, for years now. Little did we know: this is the cover we needed!
