I'm still not sure if it's Popcorn the cover or their b-side or something... I wasnt actually there so im expecting at least a video or something to know how it sounded like.

 

It's always amazing to see muse do covers that always appear awesome. Especially if we're talking about that old popcorn song, wow. I feel so weird cuz i have no idea what's it about =D i just know it was on the list.

I think it sounds really freaking cool. I could handle this being a b-side.

Everyone must check out the Children of Bodom version of Oops I Did It Again. Genius :D

 

And also on youtube there's Silent Descent's cover of Blue by Eiffel 65. Sounds bonkers.

 

Ooh, ooh, and the Britney Spears cover of Baby One More Time by August Burns Red, and the Toxic cover by a couple dozen other bands! :facepalm:

 

Just go buy Punk Goes Poop or something, you'll get your fix.

 

Some metal band did a cover of SMBH as well IIRC. :erm:

 

Some bands just shouldn't do covers. Even Muse can't pull them off every time. PPPLMGWIW anyone?

PPPLMGWIW was awesome :eek:

 

And I say that as an avid Smiths fan.

Ooh, the sound quality of this!

*wants mp3*

 

I was chuckling all through that. I've always loved the tune since I was a kid. Definitely worthy of a studio recording or even just an official live recording!

 

Popcorn (by Gershon Kingsley, then Hot Butter) is often thought of as being composed by Jean Michel Jarre. He did do a version though, before he became famous.

I'm going to shamelessly plug my site here:

 

http://www.popcorn-song.com

 

I've linked to a video from the French TV show Taratata, where they played Popcorn.

Here's the URL for it:

As a connaisseur of the original popcorn song, I have to say they are very true to the original. I love these unexpected cover versions of the song.

 

I'll be hoping for a b-side for their new single
