Deacon Blue - Trampolene

CBS
CDDEAC8
1989




Only two years after Julian Cope released his thrusting pop-rocking original of Trampolene, Deacon Fucking Blue inexplicably recast the song as an understated low-key extra track on the Wages Day EP.

Whilst I hesistate to say so about anything Deacon Fucking Blue ever did, it's actually nowhere near as bad as it could've been.

how bleedin' brave of you!

i remember shock it provoked at the time – a bizarre cover if ever there was…

does anyone know of any other cope/teardrop covers (other than the fan ones)?
