Inspired by this (thanks, Singing Bear!) I just dug out a CD single that I haven't played in ages - a cover of the Neil Diamond song 'Solitary Man' by HIM - and I still think it sounds great. A combination of an Edward Scissorhands lookalike and some choppy, squealy guitar... mmm! Well, it works for me. Perhaps it's just a guilty pleasure?
There are more things to thank Finland for than just the Moomins!
And they also do a mean cover of 'Wicked Game'.

Good version. Never knew they are Finnish.
ReplyDeleteI can't think of many Finnish bands...Tasavallan Presidenti? (Lordi?!!) Their music (and literature) always seem to be a tad on the odd, dark side, though. I have a bit of yearn to go there some day.
