More Emilie Simon. Do you like her version of Nirvana's Come As You Are?

Come As You Are

I really like it. I think it's powerful in a different way to Nirvana's. It's more gothy and haunting. Listening to it, there's menace in the air. I think it would be great for the soundtrack of a vampire movie.

Joxley says I'm not too sure myself, although I do quite like the haunting style I think it is more of an angry song and should come out in such a way.

Anna says I like it, the piano is beautiful. Her vocals remind me of Portishead's here.

QueenofHell says I think it could be angry in a feminine way. The piano is beautiful.

Joxley says Maybe...I'm just feeling more Kurt Cobain at the moment.

Joxley says Not that I'm reaching for the shotgun or anything though.

QueenofHell says I love Nirvana's Come As You Are, I'm just liking this interpretation of it at the moment. Hey, Jox, where did your post go. It appears to be in the top today, but when I click on it, it's not there. MOG gremlins?

Joxley says It's still up, things are going wrong a bit due to the renovation I think, try looking at it via my page.

Dale says I could easily see Lestat looking over the streets of New Orleans from a balcony while this song plays. Nice find, Helen!

LD50 says Yeah, very nice - the original isn't actually one of my favourite Nirvana songs but this version gives it a nice new perspective,. You're spot on about the vampire movie soundtrack too, it has a real aura of desolation about it...but in a very appealing sexy kind of way...if that makes sense. ;p I confess that I'd heard of her before but never actually listened to her - what would you recommend now that I feel inclined to investigate further?
