Pour some splenda on me

One of these is the original from Def Leppard’s 1987 classic Hysteria. I can even remember it having the #1 spot on the MTV top ten countdown way before TRL was even invented. The other is a markedly different reworking from modern day pop songstress Emm Gryner. And as fond of the original as I am, I think the reworking is actually pretty good too.

    I have the Emm Gryner version on a cd she released in Canada called “Girl Versions”. It has her doing covers of fugazi, death cab for cutie, the clash, blur and others

    Hello there…I discovered your blog a couple days ago on Hype Machine…Thanks for the great content! I have my own music blog and I was wondering if you could help me out…I currently use YouSendIt to post music…I really like the way you have yours set up so that you can just hit the play button to hear the music before you decide if you want to DL it. How would I go about doing that?
