4.0 out of 5 stars
An tribute from another generation,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Boys Of Summer (MP3 Download)
The Ataris didn't desecrate Don Henley's anthem to lost love, DJ Sammy did. The Ataris simply play those notes you know so well on the instruments they use to bare their own soul (DJ Sammy's version has no soul). The Ataris changed the lyrics "[Grateful Dead] Deadhead sticker" to "Black Flag sticker" because that's the icon that, for them, would best represent hypocrisy on a Cadillac (DJ Sammy should have changed the lyrics to "a DJ Sammy sticker").The Ataris channel Henley's message through the voice of their own experience. I didn't give this song 5 stars because it can't replace the original. I gave it 4 stars because it is a classic on its own merits. |
