Oh the disharmony! Much like Harlan County there are no neutrals here. It is your solemn responsibility to decide which cover song prevails. In other words … Which Side Are You On!??!

The Buzzcocks vs. Elakelaiset vs. R.E.M.

The Buzzcocks:

Fantastic old live footage:

Elakelaiset:

Amazing just how well this song lends itself to the classic traditional Finnish oompah sound!

R.E.M.:

October 31, 1983, R.E.M. performs at the Peppermint Lounge in New York City under the pseudonym It Crawled From The South. The footage is lacking a bit in quality yet still a treat to behold!
