What ever Christie hind does is amazing , and from a private source close to her, we all know how special she has been as an individual out there helping folk ... good on you lass x
Crissy outdid herself on this one. She's so emotional while singing this she sounds like she's about to break down and cry. Such a poignant yet beautiful cover. They delve deep into the song's black and calloused heart.
I like this version, especially the emotion in Chrissie's voice and the pain in her facial expressions as she sings the lyrics! BUT, for me it lacks the CHA CHUNK - CHA CHUNK when the electric guitar kicks in. I think that single feature of the song resonates so well with the meaning of the lyrics. Never the less, good job Chrissie.
+Guilherme Eddino ...I think 'TOOL' did a great job on their cover of Led Zeppelin's 'No Quarter' you may wanna check it out....if your a fan, that is. ;)
Radiohead's Thom Yorke was so fucking real in writing this song, even though he may hate it himself. This song resonates with so many people around the world. Why? It's real. It's raw. It's psycho, but not. It's honest. And Chrissie's angelic voice.
Yeah, I love extremely this song of Radiohead... But in this interpretation of The Pretenders there is such a passion, such a pain which you could sense yourself... Monstrously creepy! (in positive meaning)
For me this song speaks about the idea of being different from the rest of the people and because of that experience, you've got a feeling of love and hate towards your own difference which makes you a weirdo. In some way is being aware of the feminine part a man has while he's still a man. I think it's not just a song about the frustration of not getting that supposedly beautiful and perfect woman, it's something more... mainly 'cause Yorke is an artist and in his deepest feelings he's turning his own social misfit into art, converting random insecurities and personal fears into beautiful chords and lyrics moving away from that average and normal individual that our society so well portraits. She does an excellent and beautiful version, but in my opinion she lacks the real essence of the song and I miss that brutal and broken guitar.
"Chrissie Hynde rocks!..." yes...literally and figuratively Chrissie does rock...but if anyone for one moment thinks this woman is not all business needs to check out some of her interviews...
When you were here before Couldn't look you in the eye You're just like an angel Your skin makes me cry You float like a feather In a beautiful world I wish I was special You're so fuckin' special But I'm a creep I'm a weirdo What the hell am I doin' here? I don't belong here I don't care if it hurts I wanna have control I want a perfect body I want a perfect soul I want you to notice When I'm not around So fuckin' special I wish I was special But I'm a creep I'm a weirdo What the hell am I doin' here? I don't belong here She's running out the door (run) She's running out She run, run, run, run Run Whatever makes you happy Whatever you want You're so fuckin' special I wish I was special But I'm a creep I'm a weirdo What the hell am I doin' here? I don't belong here I don't belong here
I just witnessed this beautiful song be butchered on American Idol by somebody called Jena; she totally misunderstood this song and decided to scream and holler every single line. Before even attempting to cover it, she should've watched Chrissie perform it. Even 20 years after, Chrissie's cover is still the best around, and stands the test of time.
If you have to choose two songs to show someone how great Chrissie Hynde is, they would be one of her hard rockers (maybe Brass in Pocket?) and this. How someone that badass can do something so vulnerable is just a mystery.
Prefer the original tbh. If you're gonna do a cover, do it better. Take disturbed doing sound of scilence, or Jenny cash doing hurt, or ANYONE else doing a bee gees song!
Why has it taken me 25 YEARS to hear this for the first time??? Utter perfection!
Ya just gotta poke around.
29 here 😆😆
a conversation about most beautiful voices of the past 50 years must include her
What ever Christie hind does is amazing , and from a private source close to her, we all know how special she has been as an individual out there helping folk ... good on you lass x
Chrissie will take any song and make it hers, It;s like she wrote that because you can feel the emotion as you do in all her songs. Nailed IT
Será minha fêmea 😂🎉
This tribute was Special! Chrissy was exquisite with her performance. Love the Pretenders!
Everytime I hear this version I get goosebumps. True talent right there!
there is nothing left to say about this super woman...RESPECT.
A wonderful performance, to accentuate the Genius of Thom Yorke's song writing!! Miss Hynde never disappoint. 👍❤️
Love this song so much and Chrissie did a brilliant job with it class voice she has too
Amazing version - only just came across it. Love Chrissie Hynde and Radiohead AND most of all, this incredible song. Thank you...
The sweetest voice for the sweetest song....the perfect feel for the perfect song....eternal Chrissie
Breathtaking. Thank you everyone involved. Blooming marvelous.
She covers the song so well!! If I am dare to say even better than the original!
+mano ranjitha no you may not say....are you fucking kidding me....
Yeah I like the original song but in her voice it is even great.

Heart rending.
In my opinion, the only cover that is up there with the original. The strings during the ending section were awesome.
+Guilherme Eddino ...I think 'TOOL' did a great job on their cover of Led Zeppelin's 'No Quarter' you may wanna check it out....if your a fan, that is. ;)

Radiohead's Thom Yorke was so fucking real in writing this song, even though he may hate it himself. This song resonates with so many people around the world. Why? It's real. It's raw. It's psycho, but not. It's honest.
And Chrissie's angelic voice.

Love this!
Think there's something in my eye...
Now that's how you cover a song: make it your own.
Chrissie is really something special. I guess fans already knew that.
Chrissie is Ethereal ~ Takes me Away
Sweeeeeet ,and great!😊
Awesome !
You has a voice and it is so F#£king special!!!!
When you were here before
Couldn't look you in the eye
You're just like an angel
Your skin makes me cry
You float like a feather
In a beautiful world
I wish I was special
You're so fuckin' special
But I'm a creep
I'm a weirdo
What the hell am I doin' here?
I don't belong here
I don't care if it hurts
I wanna have control
I want a perfect body
I want a perfect soul
I want you to notice
When I'm not around
So fuckin' special
I wish I was special
But I'm a creep
I'm a weirdo
What the hell am I doin' here?
I don't belong here
She's running out the door (run)
She's running out
She run, run, run, run
Run
Whatever makes you happy
Whatever you want
You're so fuckin' special
I wish I was special
But I'm a creep
I'm a weirdo
What the hell am I doin' here?
I don't belong here
I don't belong here
Amazing ❤
I remember! Pamala Tyler

Linda!
Chrissie rocks!
Dis rox!
❤💪🤸♂️🔥
Can anyone find and lead me to the footage of her when her eye makeup runs down her cheeks like dark tears
Please please
Thanks !
♥♥♥
I wish I was so fucking special that once I could play and sing in Chrissies band
chooon
wow
I'm a Creep
She got the words wrong!!! "Even if it hurts"
+Dan Collins Tom sings it differently from time to time.. There's no right or wrong, you nazi.
What can I say?
,
Diciamo che i musicisti sono piu bravi della cantante.
Original de Radiohead 1993. Pero este cover es superior al original
wish I could actually hear the Words, she sounds cool , but only enunciates on the chorus
Prefer the original tbh.
If you're gonna do a cover, do it better. Take disturbed doing sound of scilence, or Jenny cash doing hurt, or ANYONE else doing a bee gees song!
So cool, but the sound sucks.
