Los Smiths
June 20, 2009 § 1 Comment
A group of blokes requested that Guy or I play The Smiths last night.
I fulfilled their wish by playing a version of There Is A Light That Never Goes out by LA Tribute band Sweet And Tender Hooligans.
It is sung in Spanish… OH THE UPROAR!
The song was recorded for a Smiths Tribute CD called Stop Me If You Think You’ve Heard This One Before.
We have…. but not like this.
But …I like this version and it shows what a really beautiful song this is… whatever language it is sung in.
This is a short video shot by the band themselves.
Check out Jose (who has even appeared in a Smiths video himself… not sure which one) and the boys on Myspace:
