Found these - apologies if they've already been posted.

James Blunt covers 'Where Is My Mind'. To me he's the Devil's spawn but this could be worse.

Thats was a nice shout out to Frank in the bowie/moby thing. "B-L-A-C-K CHARLIE ".respect where respect's due. moby has gone up alot in my estimation.

Here's another 'Where Is My Mind'. It's French and it's got cats on it. Better than James Blunt.

Bowie and Moby doing 'Cactus'- They've taken it out of the desert and put it in the mall. Yuck. Loved the Pong video on Dailymotion thogh. Hadn't seen it anywhere else.

I thought the same thing, Tro. But it's great they covered it, and I love the B-L-A-C-K part. I love when established artists give The Man his due like this.


Please pardon me, for these my wrongs.

Seemed fine to me. It's very faithful to the Pixies version, so it gets no points for originality, but what is so traumatic about it?

I hate James Blunt and I hate that Daniel Powter asshole. I didn't know they were different for a while. Now I'm sad to be reminded of their existence.

That's it. There's nothing wrong with James Blunt if you just believe he doesn't exist.

I'd never heard of him in my life until I read this thread. He must have a reputation for real shit music.

He's a real cockhound. It's best to forget about him. Then he might disappear.

I've just joined this forum and the first thing I find out is that James Blunt has gone and done Where is My Mind... Why oh why oh why.

What a terrible day...

James Blunt has a lot of nerve. He doesn't deserve to sing any Pixies material. He should stick to his own crappy songs. This is an outrage!!!!!

He's a fucking knobhole dicksack. And you can quote me on that. I'm not kidding. And that was even before I knew he covered any Pixies songs.
