Well, they did make Mary Chain's Never Understand cute.

Maybe in a bit, only just had breakfast.

Might have to check out Kotoko's album. Thanks, Richey83!

I thought this was gonna be some story to do with the song Little Baby Nothing being linked to a murder or something!

I think that's what the Manics would sound like if someone covered it on Eurovision.

It's made me laugh so much, it's really cheered me up.

It's so bad that it's actually amazing.

I only know Kotoko through one song, but if you want some more of them then might as well check this this wonderful slice of ADHD pop (with loads and loads of awkward random English words! BOOBY TRAPPU!)

(this thread has got me re-hooked onto that song and I'm compelled to link it around)

Dreadful! However the girl had a nicer voice than whoever the man was.
What amused me though, is often James has weird pronouncation too hahaha!

I did not enjoy it - at all. of course I get the point, why makin' it and it's great crash, you know, the Manics were huge in Japan in GT era and it's cool idea. but, ffs they seem to be professional. and the cover is so poorly done. and they more focus on the poppy sound than on the lyrics and the LYRICS are the most important in the Manics songwriting process (if not - call Nicky Wire) and those little fuckers make the words seem pointless, ppl while listening to the song dont think of the lyrics - AND IN THE SONG LIKE LITTLE BABY NOTHING. good idea, poor performance
/end of rant

+1!

I've heard this before but TOTALLY forgot about it, so thanks for bringing it back, hahaha. The sheer ridiculousness makes it entertaining.
