The original song is so bad. Ben Howard makes it bearable.

I prefer this version.

 

[Uncle Spielberg]

It is a stunning cover version

Could you imagine any of the other rival " punk " bands producing musicianship of this quality at the time ? No. This track more than any other showed the Stranglers really were in a different Orbit to anyone else around.
