Stereophonics - Fiddlers Green

B-Side to The Bartender and The Thief

[@eastcoasterner]

One of my favorite stereophonics songs...epic cover...probably the most under rated band in history

[@garnerbrown1077]

Hmm, too bad it's not their song.

[@christopherdhill2354]

@@garnerbrown1077 Pretty sure Gord wouldn't mind. It's a beautiful version. Given the story and history, the drum in this version is really poignant.

RIP GORD.

been 2 months since the post but still. though it carries a nautical theme the song is about the nephew of Gord Downie lead singer for the tragically hip (for a girl i know its mothers day, the girl being his sister). he died of heart failure or something to do with the heart (His tiny knotted heart, well I guess it never worked too good...). because of the personal meaning they had never played it live until 2006 when they decided that if it could help others get over loss they should play it.

Kellys voice on here is astonishing. It really brings out the emotions of the song! :)

[@iluvrocklol]

Beautiful track! Thats just the reason why the stereophonics are my favourite band!

[@Jethromcsheepherder]

I'm a Hip fan, and canuck, never heard this version until today. Very good job. 2 thumbs up..sorry guys, it won't beat the original though..but damn good cover.

[@LNAJ05]

Fantastic.. Wot a song..love it.. thx alot... :)

[@GrabbingHandz]

Never heard this one!! Thanks for the upload.

[@tunaleg]

it's cool that stereophons like the hip. two of my fave bands

[@GreenBee89]

omg! The Tragically Hip's version is great, but that's breathtaking! fantastic job!

[@garnerbrown1077]

It's NOT a "version" that The Tragically Hip" does...it's their song. Stereophonics merely "cover" it. See the difference?

[@GatoWales]

My favourite ever Phonics song. Awesome!

[@mrwaltermathews]

It's a cover of the Tragically Hip

[@GatoWales]

@@mrwaltermathews I know that buddy cheers

[@Compy01]

Brilliant video and song thanks m8!

[@Marky1888]

Klass Choon.. Cheerz 4 The Video m8...

[@cyris917]

I like the Hip version better

[@Nieghorn]

Definitely better than the original. Kelly can sing!

[@Hallucination]

No it's most definitely NOT better than the original. It's good and it's different but it's not better. And newsflash jackass, Gord could sing too.

[@rileysummers484]

I beg to differ, while jelly has a golden voice, you lose the rugged emotion that Gord had..

[@sonsofbears]

Yeah I agree Kelly has took this song to a new and better level what a voice 🙌🏻🙌🏻

[@ryanserring]

Kelly Jones makes this song epic and so much better than the tragically hip version,

[@matthewr.33]

This is a pretty insensitive song to cover to be honest.

[@rbank144]

good version but to say that this is better than the hip's version is ridiculous

[@aaaaaaaaaaaaahaaaaaaaaaaaaaa]

@ryanserring that, sir, is fucking blasphemy. Nobody can sing this song like Gordon Downie, and nobody can relate to it like Gordon Downie.

[@Elrond54]

Not bad, but the original Hip version is far better--feels far more authentic, raw, and emotional. This is too polished.
