    Has anyone else on here heard the Under Pressure Cover by My Chemical Romance and The Used, if so what are your thoughts about this. I myself really like it, because i like both The Used and My Chemical Romance.

    I like the song quite a bit, I think it compliments the original Queen and David Bowie version nicely.

    I haven't heard it. I refuse to download it (off Limewire) because if you download from the iTunes Music Store, all proceeds go to charity.

    I'm assuming you all knew that.

    I looked for it on iTunes, and couldn't find it. If someone tells me what to search for, then I could give you an answer. :)

    I thought it was pretty lame. Just another song ruined by punk-pop emo bands.

    Sorry Leslie, but I couldn't stand this cover.

    Agreed, although I did buy the song for the simple purpose of giving to charity.

    But I would have rather just give the money to the charity directly rather than through that cover. Blegh.

    I downloaded it because I'm a heartless bastard.

    Freddie Mercury is turning in his grave.

    :eek:

    And David Bowie is having nightmares...?


    Meh, I don't mind the cover, it's not bad, but I like the original better. The Used and MCR did a pretty good job with it, considering we're comparing them to musical geniuses as amazing as David Bowie and Queen.

    I doubt Bowie cares, for all intents and purposes. He needs to get his shit together, that's for sure. I hated "Reality".

    I like it because i think that it's a neat song for the 2 bands to do. It's not my new favorite song though. BTW I heard it on XM Radio.

    me too, i just happily listen to it on the radio, knowing if i were to download it i'd be stealing not from rich musicians, but some diseased and/or poor kids somewhere. i'm robin hood like that.
