Horrorshow cover The Whitlams 'No Aphrodisiac' for Like A Version

[@someoneelse1534]

"so I sit and wait. For you to write back. up late sippin' on an Eternal Nightcap." bro that line is killer

[@FlorenceRondoudou17777]

I discovered this song 2 days ago, been playing it on repeat since then. And this cover is next level with the add-ups. The rap and the added lyrics are sick! Absolutely loved this cover! As sick as the original version!

[@adoks5369]

Still listening to this on a weekly basis, such an incredible cover. 🔥

[@buffalobill2874]

It works well like this and with a sorrowful tone and Tim's voice doesn't quite get there so it enhances the original version.

[@jeremybean-hodges6397]

This is the best Like a Version I've ever seen. The interplay between that bass and the keys is just incredible.

[@igz6388]

Dude can sing and spat some words! Amazing Cover! ❤

[@tonymckew7566]

Criminally underrated cover

[@joelhogan1953]

Freddy Crabs killin it on keys, whats new?

[@whiteflour1]

Far out that was a wicked cover! Pretty sure it was just as smooth as the original! Loved the extra verse there too, slotted in so well. Gotta be one of this years best so far I reckon.

[@mollywright7921]

This like a version gets better and better the more you listen to it. god damn

[@MKPiatkowski]

Has it really been 20 years since this song came out? A great cover that keeps the essence of the song but updates it. Thanks so much for this.

[@Gophersaurus]

That was brilliant, a great cover of an all time classic.

[@HershL4G]

horrorshow always kills it 💪

[@lilianabecerril6186]

que pedo con eso

[@labadiezrocarmeloomp7207]

this is a great cover, and I love the update to remove the insensitive word in there They set a high standard on the first lav and they nailed this one. Caramello Fello can sing! That was brilliant, a great cover of an all time classic.

[@kamadowoah4584]

How can an abbreviation make something offensive if the full length word isn't?????

[@maxm3246]

@@kamadowoah4584 in the same way that if you called someone a homo it sounds less respectful than saying they're homosexual (although people rarely use homosexual any more anyway) i imagine it's because the shorter word is more likely to be shouted in your face by someone right before they drunkenly attack you, for example. also because that word came about when there was less of a distinction between transvestite and transsexual/transgender, which doesn't reflect the ideas of gender that exist today.

[@schlocketmonster3096]

Saw the Whitlams blackstump perform it last night, and they've also taken it out.

[@benparry4541]

loving the smooth feel they give off. great work guys

[@danstewart6311]

OK so how tight are the hangs with the guitar, keyboard and vocals and just the polished production with this even tho its a Friday morning radio gig...A+ class much love!

[@samjohncurkoi7038]

Smoothest voice, great work fellas

[@eamonnc96]

smooth nicholas your humble narrator

[@samjohncurkoi7038]

Solo on the mic and adit on the fader

[@dtom2134]

Mr Abbot would you pls turn to vapour?

[@brebner772]

You'd be doing us a really big favour

[@jakeeus]

Boy this track really has a lot of flavour

[@anthonybody7319]

Just want to say, this song really helped me through my asparagus addiction. Thanks Horrorshow and thankyou Triple J.

[@samarmes6797]

The boys always seem to find the best mix of melody and hot bars, his voice was made for this. Tight collab and cover!!!

[@buffalobill2874]

It's one possible voice that works very well with it and i think more sorrowful tones would also go well.

[@mickrad]

Legend version from a legend crew. Top work all!

[@patriciahart8378]

Just heard this on the radio today and loved it.

[@hernendezsanchez7646]

i just jizzed. that my friends was an excellent cover. great interpretation and kept the original spirit of the song. the contrasts at the end between verses was the best bit. bravo again ! 👏

[@salmagrimes4826]

This is my favourite Like a Version. So tasty. The mash up of the lyrics is supurb! Asparagus 1:19 for the song start, by the way. But the preamble is interesting enough for at least 1 listen

[@adoamusic]

Really clever use of the Redbone instrumental, love it!

[@TheKozzee]

imryano listen to the original

[@AiryFairyAlly]

How beautiful. Wowwww. In love with this

[@nicksloane2506]

looks like 28 people made a mistake . how the hell can you give this a thumbs down? this is music, proper music.

[@aaronwebb7090]

I've only just discovered this version, I wish I had made it another 45 years before doing so. That way I would have had a good chance of being deaf, which would have been preferable.

[@nicholassessarago3829]

Fucking word !!

[@tangles01]

Brave choice, Nailed it. Pretty sure Tim would be pleased. Took me back to delivering pizzas after school in 97, and seeing the Whitlamns in 98 at the local RSL I even go to meet TIm himself. Bought him a beer had a chat about music was a great guy.

[@user-wr5pw3fx2p]

Have you heard original by Machine Gun Fellatio...

[@alicebarr7327]

Legend version from a legend crew. Top work all! loving the smooth feel they give off. great work guys epic!!! Nailed it

[@sixstringedthing]

How did I miss this awesome cover? Like A Version... such a trove of gems.

[@jakeellingham587]

They set a high standard on the first lav and they nailed this one. Caramello Fello can sing!

[@anilkumar-dv1dd]

[@alexandrafaaay]

[@_powerrranger]

[@craigweyer4058]

So good couldn't of picked a better song to cover, an all time fav by many of us

[@Dontmakemereregister]

Frank Zappa's killin it on the keyboard!

[@TheFineolase]

Verse 1: Solo] A letter to you on a cassette 'Cause we don't write anymore Gotta make it up quickly There's people asleep on the second floor [Chorus 1 (Condensed): Solo] There's no aphrodisiac like loneliness Truth, beauty and a picture of you [Verse 2: Solo] You'll be walking your dog in a few hours I'll be asleep at my brother's house You're a thousand miles away With food between your teeth Come up for summer I got a place near the beach There's room for your dog [Chorus 1: Solo] There's no aphrodisiac like loneliness Truth, beauty and a picture of you Don't you know that there's no aphrodisiac like loneliness Youth, truth, beauty, fame, boredom and a bottle of pills [Verse 3: Solo] Yo I wrote a letter on a cassette and sent it in the mail To give chase when your ship was setting sail Problem is that the devil's in the detail I need to feel your touch, put my fingers to the brail So I sit and wait for you to write back Up late sipping on an eternal nightcap But I don't wan' to be checking if you're like that I wanna be in your space asking, "Do you like that?" Fuck texts, DMs, and mixed messages Crossed wires, bad signal, no reception I think we getting sick from the medicine Got me chatting to my therapist all about Small talk, cocaine, ecstasy, alcohol Hangovers, takeaway, carelessness, Panadol Asparagus, chocolate, oysters Shit, I've had 'em all, lemme tell you, there's [Chorus 2: Solo] No aphrodisiac like loneliness You shouldn't leave me alone There's no aphrodisiac like loneliness Bare feet like a tom-boy and a crooked smile [Post-Chorus: Solo] Truth, youth, beauty, fame, boredom Red hair, no hair, innocence Instagram and a picture of you A letter to you on a cassette You shouldn't leave me alone [Verse 4: Solo] Forty, shaved, sexy, wants to do it all day With a gun-toting trigger-happy missy named Kinky Renée Tired teacher, twenty-eight, seeks regular meetings For masculine, muscular, nappy-clad, brutal breeding While his wife rough wrestles with a puppy All aquiver on a wine-soaked, strobe-lit Asiatic hall of mirrors and a dash of loneliness There's no aphrodisiac quite like it [Chorus 3: Solo] Said there's no aphrodisiac like loneliness Truth, beauty and a picture of you Said there's no aphrodisiac like loneliness Truth, beauty and a picture of you

[@AutisticLed]

I keep returning to this song in its recorded form without this interaction as well as this because it's so funny! "Hello, it's Tim!"

[@hmas735]

Brilliant cover with its own twist

[@suewebb4838]

[@patrickcrellin3549]

Loved it!! 1:19 for the song start, by the way. But the preamble is interesting enough for at least 1 listen

[@soutarm]

Wow chill af plus one of my fave Whitlams tracks!

[@BillSmithOfficial]

There's no aphrodisiac like this version.

[@unintelligible3985]

Bill Smith wait... Is that supposed to be a pun?

[@buffalobill2874]

It's partially comedic owing to the excitement phase in relation to the ringtone at the beginning if you consider the whole album this came from.

[@vk5jajay147]

Bloody Brilliant lad's 👌😎

[@AutisticLed]

Need to hear the original now. But wow this version is incredible.
