    Not by a long shot. (I agree that it's awful though).

    See you and raise you The Monkees 1987 comeback jaw-dropper "That Was Then This Is Now".

    OK, that was bad. Couldn't make it past about 30 seconds.

    But it was The Monkees. So, um, what did you expect?

    Have to say I love that song. Nico's dispassionate voice really suits the subject matter, the song was probably written about her too!

    Isn't Sandinista version just a version re-done by someone else though?
    It doesn't really count so.

    It is indeed, as far as I know, it's Blockhead Mickey Gallagher and his kids.

    Happy Mondays - Monkey in the Family

    2nd track on the majorly disappointing "Yes Please" Album.

    The lyrics on this track were strongest indication that the superhuman quantities of "Rock" (crack cocaine) that Shaun Ryder was putting away during the recording of the album was no exaggeration.

    They'd become a drug band with a music habit.
    Quoting years at random since 1975

    Jesus how did I forget about "How Can I Protect You" by Alabama 3 (featuring vile sample from vile Aslans vile 'Crazy World').

    I love A3 but man they deserve a good kicking for that.

    Dig For Fire ain't a bad song, but for some reason I don't like it much. Reminds me too much of a U2 song - coincidentally, later I found out they wrote a note to Pixies saying "Keep on digging for fire".

    Would probably need to listen to Femme Fetale again.
