Didn't even know this cover existed until a few minutes ago!

Wow...that was surprisingly good. What an unexpected surprise that was, coming from a group called Primal Scream.
Thanks for pointing this out.

This cover sucks. It's unfortunate that Dennis' name was credited. The original sung by Blondie dusts this piece of crap.

I, I love the colorful clothes she wears, and she's already working on my brain. I only looked in her eyes, but I picked up something I just can't explain. I, I bet I know what she’s like, and I can feel how right she’d be for me. It’s weird how she comes in so strong, and I wonder what she’s picking up from me. I hope it’s good, good, good, good vibrations, yeah!!

What didn't you like about it, just out of curiosity? It got a little weird near the end, but I think Dennis would have approved.

I don't think Dennis would have approved. Primal scream butchered it and it's a disgrace to the name of Dennis Wilson.
You wanna hear a real good cover of "Carry Me Home"? Search down a CD called "Long Promised Road" by the Adam Marsland Band. They do a live version of it. Now THAT one Dennis would be proud of.

My feelings entirely. I think it's done sincerely. It comes from a great little EP called
Dixie Narco
. Don't know about later PS stuff but
DN
and
Screamadelica
are essential listens in my opinion.

While it may not be to everyone's tastes, I find it to be a sincere cover as well. It's certainly unexpected and retains the mournful quality of the original recording with its own twists (of course, Adam Marsland's cover is quite good as well).

I always respect Mikie's opinion (a good philosophy!), but I have to say I enjoyed this track. It definitely takes me back to moody indie music of the time period. That said -- I've never heard the original and probably my view of this would have been colored if I had.
