This song fit so well with Donny Darko that the it's impossible to imagine with any other track. Forever linked in my mind.

I've heard this one way too much on RP. Maybe not retire it but at least take it out of regular rotation.

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

The original is so much better I can't believe we have to hear this version at all. Morover, the tempo and the drive of the song is completely destroyed.

Bill???

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

It's pretty dark, isn't it. Poignant, though.
doesn't have to be dark.. or painful. dreams i'm dying, or falling, are my favorite too. - it's like being un-encumbered. totally free. as long as i have the good sense to not try to hang on. ...in the dream.

Pandora tends to get into ruts and different stations start sounding the same. RP is really random and eclectic, that's for sure.

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!
