Fan Death

It’s official. I have re-fallen in love with Fan Death. They just sent over this cover of “Goodbye Horses” to promote their upcoming European tour — and it’s incredible. A bit less disco and a bit more rock attitude that some of the previous stuff we’ve heard from Fan Death… and they manage to catch the feeling of the original quite well. There’s soul in this one. Anyway.

Fan Death – “Goodbye Horses”

And Fan Death says: “We don’t like doing covers live so don’t request we play it.” So there you go.

    i didn't like this song at first, but after the first 15 times listening to it, it really grew on me. i must confess, i didn't even recognize the song form its original…granted, i was all of four years old when it was first released.

    Her voice is death gorgeous and mature, it was very surprising to see them in concert and realize how young and starters they are. They look like 12 years old grlz doing their first concert in the highschool cantine.

    I mean it in a good way. b.t.w.
