Best cover I've heard of one of my favorite all time songs. Saw Martha and the Muffins live in 1981 and this definitely does them justice. Nicely done.

Beautiful work! Bass, sax, guitar, vocals, drums, mixing, shooting and even synths - everything on the same page. Really thoroughly excellent. Such an intense effort on a song I've loved personally since it hit the airwaves! I can't pretend to express how much respect I have for you guys. Congratulations, and best wishes in everything you do. Love from Edmonton.

Excellent. Very pretty girls too.

[@davidwaterhouse2552]

Greatest cover I have ever heard of this amazing tune! Thankyou! dx

This is the song me and my three kids used to "sing" on the way back from primary school; nowadays one is an atmospheric chemist, another an anthropologist and the other is a diplomat, all down to screaming this song at the top of their voices from the back seat of the family Vauxhall Corsa, happy memories.

Best cover yet ... it had to be good with a parody name like
'Mildred and the Malt Loaves'

[@superphysical1410]

Jo here- thanks Patrick! Much appreciated.

[@mpdhome2538]

Excellent cover. Fiona has a perfect voice for this one, I love the additional background vocals you added to the original, and the beach setting is classy.

Martha & The Muffins ...Top March 1980....Excellent Cover

"Mildred and the Malt Loaves" hahaha :) very good, and nice music too (I like the backing singing at 0:59 there should have been more of that!!!)

[@rg5107]

Which one is Mildred and who are the Malt Loaves🤣🤣? Terrible name but class cover of this little classic 👏

[@gary1961]

One of my favourite songs from that great year, 1980. This is an awesome cover and the lead singer is ultra hot.

[@gregfulton2539]

Nice take, sigh, ah my youth. A decent stab at B52s was the original.

[@andyledger2307]

The original was Martha and the Muffins.

[@perfectionbox]

vocals needed more passion especially at the end but overall a good cover
