The Original

From the album The Beatles [The White Album]

DJ comments: I can't believe we haven't played a Beatles song on the Soup until now. What restraint we show. — cwc

I f'ing love this song. I'm taking the Beatles class right now and have an unbelievable amount of respect for the band. Not that I didn't before, but I can't tell you how much I didn't know. I highly suggest taking it if you ever get a sign-up time on the first day. I think it's the first class to fill up every semester -- due in large part to the kick-ass professor who, though born and raised in Iowa, speaks with a British accent half the time. — BJ




The Cover

From the album Nocturne

Siouxsie & the Banshees:   Web site   MySpace

DJ comments: Robert Smith was a member of the Banshees at this point (random Cure reference). — cwc
