    I do because it totally ruins the Who's original version, and they even leave a whole section out. my cousin is constantly blaring Limp Bizkit's version and I told him it sucks and I'll let him listen to the original and vastly better version, but he has never taken me up on the offer. It seemed like he didn't even know it was a remake.

    Never should have happened. Durst is a turd and thinks he's a rock legend. He had the idea of remaking a who song because while trying like hell to write more limp crap music he heard it on the radio and in his warped mind thought he could be in the same caliber as pete townsend.

    From what I've heard, "Behind Blue Eyes" is Limp Bizkit's best song, and I hate it anyway.

    Yes, I hate it. But I hate Limp Bizkit's version of everything.

    I do too, Jaguar. The section they left out is the best part of the whole song, too. Not that they did a particularly great job with the rest of it, but hey...

    I got almost lynched in here, when I mentioned it was on my playlist!

    I like it. I only heard the original a few times. I wouldn't persist that it's better, but I like it. Sue me :p

    From the Gothika soundtrack? It's okay,but the original by The Who is much better.

    I actually liked "Three Dollar Bill, Y'All". I've hated everything else I've ever heard by them. The bastardized version of "Behind Blue Eyes", is horrible.

    The part with the "Speak and Spell" though, pure gold. ;)



    Oh yeah, Pure Gold = Crap, btw. :D

    Limp Bizkit's cover of Behind Blue Eyes made me want to vomit. So I guess you could say I hate it. [face_plain]

    I have a soft spot for that song because that;s what introduced me to The Who and all.

    So yeah, I do actually like it.

    However...

    The Who >>>>>> Limp Bizkit

    And they did leave the best part ever out!

    No one knows what it's like
    To be the bad man
    To be the sad man
    Behind blue eyes

    No one knows what it's like
    To be hated
    To be fated
    To telling only lies

    But my dreams
    They aren't as empty
    As my conscience seems to be

    I have hours, only lonely
    My love is vengeance
    That's never free

    No one knows what it's like
    To feel these feelings
    Like I do
    And I blame you

    No one bites back as hard
    On their anger
    None of my pain and woe
    Can show through

    But my dreams
    They aren't as empty
    As my conscience seems to be

    I have hours, only lonely
    My love is vengeance
    That's never free

    When my fist clenches, crack it open
    Before I use it and lose my cool
    When I smile, tell me some bad news
    Before I laugh and act like a fool

    If I swallow anything evil
    Put your finger down my throat
    If I shiver, please give me a blanket
    Keep me warm, let me wear your coat


    No one knows what it's like
    To be the bad man
    To be the sad man
    Behind blue eyes

    As long as no-one every tries to copy Baba O'Reily, then I'll be happy. It seems I'm in the minority here, but I thought Bizkit's copy was semi-decent. I still like the original better, but I don't mind Fred's version either.

    I once convinced a friend I was taking her to a free limp bizkit show, telling her how we needed to open our musical horizons...then Velvet Revolver came out and she was relieved it was all a joke.

    I like it.

    It's the worst song on that CD, but I like it.

    I've liked Limp Bizkit since the Three Dollar Bill, Yall days. Signifigant Other rocked. Chocolate Starfish was iffy. But the new CD is pretty solid for a rock CD. Of course, most people just don't like Fred Durst and won't give the new stuff an ounce of time. Of course, after 'Rollin', heh.

    :p

    anyways.
