"i always get chocolate stains on my pants"
i first got into this song on a smashing pumpkins acoustic bootleg where it is haunting and great, and then got into the original which is more powerful in its own way.
the main trouble with cover versions is that - even if you totally understand the lyric and empathise with the emotion behind it and can use it to express your own emotions - noone can ever convey the message of the words with as much emotional power as the person who wrote them.
hearing this song so much on that stupid cider advert is starting to make me sick of it - i really hope that doesn't continue.
