I am a HUGE lips fan, but I think they butchered it. It sounds like a "bad joke" honestly. I'm not hating on the lips, I have every single album and have always loved them(except Yoshimi), but this cover just sounds like a bad joke.
They do some really great covers, like Louis Armstrong's "What a wonderful World", which still blows me away, but this one just doesn't sound very "thought out" according to the Lip's potential. I think if they really put their minds to it, they could've done a much better job.
