He's not playing violin, he's playing fiddle! It's rock and roll and rock and roll is juvenile... just like this.  |

Was in the UK when the Status Quo version was a hit - many memories. This is a decent cover, though - the violin's a hoot.

Oh, man, this way you make me cry... I always loved the Status Quo original version, but this one is great! You should play it more times...

The original was from Status Quo (1968), i think.

Great cover, but I like most the original Status Quo. Why don't you play it again sometimes?

Great cover to one of the first songs of its kind. Some say acid rock, others say metal. Status Quo wrought a classic by any name at all.

Nice cover, does it justice. Might like it a little better actually.

I can't remember who did the original, but this holds pretty true. Maybe a little more "updated". And no - those of you who can't play violin would not even be able to get close. It'ssupposed to sound "simple". We're talking matchstick men here - not high art.

I like this much better tan the original. I think it has an edge that was previously missing and brings out some character.
