Indeed he does. Fans of Gary's version might like this performance with Curt Smith. |

Ok, great cover, but it would be nice to hear the original once in a while.

Sorry to be negative but this isn’t a cover it’s a copy. |

makes me shudder every time - not a good song originally - lame attempt at a solemn, sober, melancholy song. Boo, hiss. The '80's dated-ness even shines through in this sparse version! Yikes!

One of the rare instances where the cover outshines the original.

This is a great song; I love the degree of discussion that it creates here - thats the sign of a good piece of music. Amongst the films it has been used in, it was also used in the post-apocalyptic TV series 'Jericho'
