What about "Venus in furs" by the great Velvet Underground :notworthy: :notworthy:

I still can't believe, that this is from the sixties. Maybe one the first goff songs... 8)

No surprise it was covered by Christian Death then :wink:


I'd like them to try T.S.O.L.'s Darker My Love. I've loved that song for so long... and especially the 90's :von: could have gotten away with that one.

That would be very Reptile House-esque

It would also be very Le Phono c.1982. Perhaps they could revive the old E Bow gimmick from Marian to do the John Cale viola bit.

something out of depeche mode catalogue..something older preferably..the sun and the rainfall maybe...would be depending largely on the way they would transform the songs musically

I was going to suggest Hazel by The Cocteau Twins...maybe for an instrumental..either that or go for mumbled lyrics!!

Posted: 23 Apr 2013, 08:32

There could be quite a few Cocteau's tracks that would fit nicely

Five Ten Fiftyfold might be interesting

Some good covers of TSOM songs would be nice rather than the second division metal versions they play these days :?
