Tab Discussion, Comments, and Critiques


No Picture Martin Lead Player	#1 by Martin Endara at Jul 11, 1973 at 1:18 PM EST
	the video is so funnny, tho i've only seen it once

No Picture ian Average	#2 by ian mckinly at Nov 25, 1975 at 2:39 PM EST
	good cover

No Picture Rignald Average	#3 by Rignald Tromp at Dec 18, 1982 at 2:04 PM EST
	It's a great song. The video is hilarious

No Picture Dylan Average	#4 by Dylan Donovan at Jul 8, 1990 at 10:48 PM EST
	Is it just me, or is the video absolutely disgusting... and hilarious? I mean, you go on hoping for a happy ending, then you're crushed, then you're like "AWWWWW" and then you HAVE to laugh! Anyway, I don't know why people don't like this cover. It's not meant to be just like the original; you can still ike Van Morrison's. This one just happens to be different, but good too.

No Picture Ian Professional	#5 by Ian Murphy at May 9, 1991 at 10:54 PM EST
	you have to watch the video twice so you can see it from a different perspective

No Picture NIK Average	#6 by NIK blaszczyszyn at Oct 20, 1995 at 11:06 PM EST
	decent cover of Van Morisson song; i'm not a fan of cover songs, but art didn't fuck this cover up (like most bands do w/ cover songs)
