song: while my guitar gently weeps
cover: spineshank
original: the beatles
comments: even if he was still alive, i could never marry peter steele. because i don’t like the beatles.
yeah, i’ll let that absorb for a second.
but seriously, i just… don’t. i appreciate their contribution to the music world, and the artists they’ve influenced, and blah blah blah, but i just don’t like the beatles themselves. covers of their songs, though… i can get behind those.
first song is cover, second is original.
where can you get it?
the beatles – while my guitar gently weeps
spineshank – while my guitar gently weeps
lyrics: i look at you all
see the love there that’s sleeping
while my guitar gently weeps
i look at the floor
and i see it needs sweeping
still my guitar gently weeps
i don’t know why nobody told you
how to unfold your love
i don’t know how someone controlled you
they bought and sold you
i look at the world
and i notice it’s turning
while my guitar gently weeps
with every mistake
we must surely be learning
still my guitar gently weeps
i don’t know how you were diverted
you were perverted too
i don’t know how you were inverted
no one alerted you
i look at you all
see the love there that’s sleeping
while my guitar gently weeps
look at you all
still my guitar gently weeps
