Yeah, I'm not really a Rihanna fan but I love her version, Manics one is decent but doesn't even come close.

Manics version > Rihanna's version

ALways liked this Manics version, fun rocking version. Heard it before the original, so went to listen to that and thought it was utter bollocks and didn't understand the hype. Manics kick arse. And guitar solo is quality.

Yay, ay, ay, ay.

It's a proper ear worm. Nice easy throwaway entertainment. I know that's not good enough for some of the chin strokers on here, but I'm fine with it.

Still love this everytime I hear it on shuffle. It makes me smile and I think back to the reaction it got when the Manics played with Foo Fighters-it was great.
