How good is that? I agree that it is a very diffeent approach but it is a very different interpretation that makes you want to hear the original (which is a very, very good thing) well... | Reviewer: a | 8/30/07 Pink Floyd's original version will always be the best no matter what. However, the version Scissor Sisters produced isn't really that bad. Artistically, it's really good, abstract. They did a fine job covering this song with their own twist. They got a different meaning out of it, and this is what they made of it. I will always have a preferance to the original, but when you just want something different, this could be it. I hate this. | Reviewer: annon | 8/4/07 the desecrated pink floyd's masterpiece. I have nothing more to say. the floyd are good but so are the sisters | Reviewer: Sarah J | 3/12/07 The scissor sisters did the cover out of respect to pink floyd, not to make money out of them, it is the only cover version that they have ever done. The pink floyd original is a true classic but the scissor sisters didn't just go and do the same song again, they used the lyrics and interpreted them differently into a style of music one wouldn't usually associate with Pink Floyd. Full credit to Jake and Babydaddy for creating a cover that almost seems original. Think of it as the same subject painted by two different artists. Not everyone will like both, but that's the entire point of being an artist. they are both good | Reviewer: bobby | 3/1/07 i happen to like both versions. it just depends on what mood i am in when i want to listen. if i'm in a larthargic druggy-ish mood then i like Pink Floyd's version. if i'm in a peppy happy dancy mood i pick Scissor Sisters. besides they wrote all the other songs on that cd and every one of them is good so i don't mind their respectful homage to Pink Floyd! Song's for the Century | Reviewer: Gary Lawson | 9/25/06 WOW, 30 year's later and I'm still in awe. One of Pink Floyd's Best! Thx PK, ur the Best! load of shit | Reviewer: john | 8/3/06 roger waters is a god and the rest of pink floyd this cover is pants wy fronts and poooh as well how did thi travesty ever manage to invade our eardrums. This is just not on. The son actually made me feel sick!!!!! Rape | Reviewer: Bart | 7/1/06 Pink Floyd are Gods. You don't touch them. You don't fucking totally rape their songs. This song is a proove of the worst disrespect one can ever have for the original musicians. Comfortably Numb is a brilliant Pink Floyd song. If these Scissor Sisters can't write a brilliant one theirselves, they shouldn't be stealing, raping and commiting sacrilege. SS Vs PF | Reviewer: j | 2/10/06 I liked the scissor sisters song and didnt have a preference until i did acid and listened to the pink floyd one, i have to say now it does kick the scissor sisters arse. I Like It | Reviewer: Rosie | 6/5/05 I've listened objectively to both the Pink Floyd and the Sissor Sisters versions of this song, and whilst all credit is due to Pink Floyd for writing such a good song, I enjoyed the Sissor Sisters version more. I love the electronic edge they've put on it. I think having it at a faster tempo sounds better too. I know most covers are awful, but don't be too quick to judge on this one. Give it a few listens through first, and then make your mind up :) Add Your New Review About The Song By Pages:   1    2
