The Sisters of Mercy - Gimme Gimme

[@jackevans2550]

I was at this gig at Manchester Uni. This is the only time I ever heard them play the song. I wish they'd recorded it in the studio. It could have been as wonderful as "Jolene."

[@bauzel5890]

Shure, but Jolene was easy to cover as a known folk song, to release an ABBA song would have cost a lot of money, at least to the lawyers ;)

[@KeithLaws]

@@bauzel5890 covers are cheap, you just credit the writers and they get their share of sales income. If it sells

[@chrisparcley4501]

Would have been wonderful but I've always enjoyed scouring the bootlegs for all the obscure covers. Something uniquely sisters of Mercy about it... Just an opinion.

[@kamran102]

Were there any Swedes there?

[@skumkulturetapes]

@@kamran102 it was "for the swede in everybody"

[@Eve_36963]

I started loving ABBA for this song. Didn't know my lovely Sister's have covered it. Love it even more now!

[@eyebandmusic]

awesome - and shows what a fun sense of humour they had. thank-you for posting.

[@doriannritter2615]

I love such raw recordings!

[@draganapasti_]

An awesome cover, I simply can’t help it 🔥Eldritch as well 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥Looove his genius❤️

[@benspruce]

Cool, I always thought this song sounded pretty dark...even the original by Abba.

[@Hirschtomas]

Lovely cover, Swedish Gothband the Leathernun made it in studio, , it´s on Spotify. Worth listening- if you love this. One of the members in Leathernun, Freddie Wadling is a lovely singer (didnt sing in Leathernun though) but his band Blue for Two, song Firebird is a very good one from them, Freddie also sang in Fleshquartet, Fading like a Dream could make a moment!

The sisters, wow.

[@rogerm3343]

played it at Birmingham Tin Can on same tour, not sure what other dates they played it

[@Batstrings]

i got an invite to that gig at the Tin Can, traveled down from the N.East and spent the night sleeping on the floor at birmingham station, those were the days

[@estacabron1608]

buen rock goth

[@Ghostavo.mp3]

Eu realmente não sabia que o Sisters tinha um cover de Abba, eu tô chocado

[@beam_campus]

Being a life-long Sisters fan, but also a music lover, I understand why they wanted to try and cover this. This is a bass-player song. Unfortunately, they could not capture it.

[@ButterflyRoseX]

He sounds like *Bowie* during the chorus parts :)

[@KittyChanel]

i hear it

[@doriannritter2615]

Bowie did a "white diet", Andrew a "black diet"! 😉

[@frozen1762]

Andrew must have lost a bet or something. Still even shitty music like ABBA sounds great when puled through Sisters mix.

[@coldwar1977]

Abba is not shitty
