    the fact that lots of people will never like this sort of stuff is something to be celebrated. pity the person that only responds to digitised perfection.

    Some people spend time listening to things/people they don't like because it helps them understand them and also so they can give opinions based on experiences when douchey idiots use absurd logic on youtube.

    I agree with Deth, both versions are touching. To be perfectly honest I prefer Peter Gabriel's version. Also, to say that all of Peter Gabriel's songs are mediocre at best implies that you have listened to more than one of his songs. Which means that you took the time to listen to them in the first place. Why continue to listen to them if you don't like them?

    I disagree with your thesis, good sir. His song is touching, as is this version.

    The Airborne Toxic Event are the worst kind of penis.

    Gabriel is awesome, and he rarely covers songs. He is an artist in a world of musicians that are only too happy to sellout.

    Peter Gabriel did the audio equivalent of Instagraming this song. He took something that was already beautiful and made it douchey. If you've put any thought into the lyrics of this song, you'd quickly realize that they were meant to be sung like THIS. The Peter Gabriel version just sounds like every other Peter Gabriel song... mediocre at best.

    You don't need power for a love song. In fact, you need to go the other direction entirely. The Magnetic Fields have a very sweet, tender song here. Try singing it softly with someone you love, looking them dead in the eyes. It's perfect the way it is.

    I'm disappointed it took so long for me to find this wonderful song but now that I've found it, I'm sure I'm going to fall in love with the replay button.

    This was hands down, one of the best songs I've ever heard live.

    No one can lift the damn thing. Great line.

    Everything but Duran Duran and The Cult is not fit for a Jesus-hating, crimes-against-nature disapproving, all knowing ass-hole, right? The Cult is rather dull as well, just saying.

    Simple. Clean. Honest. Beautiful.

    This is now my favorite song, I do believe. :3

    I agree - props to Magnetic Fields for writing the song, but TATE's live version had more emotion and more power.

    Such an incredibly haunting song

    ... great lyrics which make you feel different about writing stuff like "This song is long and boring... no one can hear the damn thing!" But I guess I'm not the only one who responded more or less in that occasion to you!
