One of the best songs of the 1990s, I'm glad people still remember it.

That has put a huge smile on my face, seems so much happiness in the room, one of my fave bands covering another of my fave bands, love it.

2024 just discovered this song and found one of my favourite bands did a cover ❤ thank you

[walstafa]

I used to play this song in a band until the singer passed away. This was one of her favourite tunes, thank you for the happy memory.

There's a show on Peacock called Laid that's uses this as their song. I've been down a rabbit hole trying to find the exact cover but I found yall instead and that's ok. Great cover and awesome energy

I f’ing love James. I f’ing love July Talk. I’m in pure immolation right now.

Someone needs to show this to Tim Booth. This is is so absolutely perfect - spot on - on the idea of this song that not even James can do it better than this woman and her guys. Hats up. Absolutely perfect cover of a song that isn't "coverable". But you did it!

2023 and I still dig this cover a ton!

[daanondecock]

Thank you favorite humans. This is one of the best gifts ever.

[kuyzat]

you can't imagine what a watershed song this has been for me. some of my friends get electrified, some don't. and that speaks volumes...

[Riverfilly]

I love you guys so much. The contrast between your voices is an incredible dichotomy, and I love your music videos, always very stylish and abstract. Looking forward to hearing y’all again. Set a reminder for the premiere. Keep on being badass 🤘, I’m here for it.
