I agree with Matthieu up to a point, although I do like this version up to a point for its sheer bizarreness. I think Jarvis might, too. But the problem is that it drains out what is genuine irony on the original and makes the subtleties in the lyrics so manifest they lose much of their impact and humour.

The backing vocals were not needed. Shatner is all this cover needs
