Wow………other …
Wow………other than Eliza Doolittle at 1:48 this is truly, truly awful. It seemed like the majority were horribly out of tune. Now, I can’t sing myself but I do recognize sour notes when I hear them (the 1st woman was in tune and Chrissy Hynde has always been slightly out of tune and an acquired taste).
A fabulous and deserving cause, but still………just awful.

Someone should have …
Someone should have done the Screamin’ Jay Hawkins bit, and dressed up and hollered hysterical nonsense. It would have been great to see Nick Cave hopping around with a skull -topped stick wearing some funky voodo-suit.

Good man, Shane …
Good man, Shane McGowan! Though I think he missed a trick here: Screaming Jay Hawkins, who originally performed the song, used to use the gimmick of jumping out of a coffin to perform. I’m sure Shane’s fans wouldn’t have missed the potential irony here; in fact, how about Shane, Nick Cave and Bobby Gillespie ALL jumping out of coffins?!! Now that would have been a GREAT video!
