P'fork on Snow Patrol's Beyonce cover

helsabot [Edit] [Delete] 17:33, 20 November '09

"The worst excess on the whole set is the band's half-joking "Crazy in Love" cover, which-- unlike, say, Antony's version-- does not excise the Jay-Z verse. Instead, someone from the band has to fuck around with one of those awful joke-rap voices. Jay-Z's cultural references must not have quite the same currency in Britain, since whoever takes the verse gets a few things blatantly, hilariously wrong; "Handle like Van Exel" becomes "candle like benex soup" or something."

Back-handed Zane Lowe insult much? HA.
