I'm no Killers fan but I used to quite like When we were Young; that was until I heard this version by The Noisettes:


Is it just me or does a lot of it, especially the vocal harmonising, seem out of tune?

Doesn't sound out of tune to me, but it's just an embarassing song.

Still, it's interesting how they changed the lyrics: "He doesn't look a thing like Jesus / but he talks like a gentleman" becomes "I don't look a thing like she does / but I talk like a gentle soul". They should have gone on and changed a few more lines while they had the biro out.

I do like the music, strings almost always win me over. I'm no fan of the Killers, but I can tolerate their music. I really don't like the singing on this. I think sometimes Live Lounge covers can be a crime.
