Well I like Frank Black myself (and The Pixies) but if you are referring to this: <p align="center"> <object width="320" height="265"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/4vtTaOCVcg8&hl=en&fs=1&rel=0"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/4vtTaOCVcg8&hl=en&fs=1&rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="320" height="265"></embed></object> </p> I'm sorry my friend but this lacks everything that makes the original so great... well in my opinion that is. I mean: Herman's version gives me power and when it's over I think "Ahh.. over already?". When Frank is finally done I'm like "yes finally... peace & quiet is what I need". However. Frank got my eternal respect by bringing a tribute to Herman at the cemetry (zorgvliet, Amsterdam). Fortunately someone actually caught it on video. At the start he says "Mach iek Engwels spreghen." Nice accent dutch for "Can I speak Enlish?". Enjoy: <p align="center"> <object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/0TCQ7QKozxc&hl=en&fs=1&rel=0"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/0TCQ7QKozxc&hl=en&fs=1&rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object> </p> Hi Chow thanks for your reaction.
