Here is a link to it in Windows Media format.

And here is the same song in Real Audio format.

It will be interesting to see what APC's third album will be like. I really like this single, but I also really liked Weak and Powerless off their second album from which I didn't like much else.

Anyway. I thought you guys would like to have a listen.

I like APC, but not this song. The original is hopeful, bright...this one's dark, melanchony and it doesn't work well with the lyrics.

what the dilly yo maynard? You're making ANOTHER APC album instead of releasing the TOOL dvd or working on their next album? And then you take a good Beatles song and turn it into... into this?

i thought that was pretty good. i prefer when bands really put their own stamp on a song, like this. i'm not too familiar with the original but it sounded to me like they actually rewrote some of the music, changing the key and stuff. that's when i think covers are interesting. it's not just playing the song, it's where the band heard the song and something in their head went "ah-ha!" and they heard all these ways the song could be made better, and set out to do it.

You think Lennon's song is horrible? What's wrong with you?

This cover is a neat little take on it. Its got a touch of Zeppelin in there too.

2004-08-25 STATEMENT FROM MAYNARD
November 2nd, coinciding with the presidential election, APC will be releasing a collection of songs about WAR, PEACE, LOVE AND GREED, entitled "eMOTIVe." This week we will release one of these new songs entitled, "Counting bodies like sheep to the rhythm of the war drums," with an animated video poking fun at our fearless leader. Hopefully, you'll find it as entertaining as we do.

REMEMBER... EVERY SINGLE VOTE COUNTS.

Don't let yourself be tricked into thinking it does not. It is important for us all to engage this political system and to be conscious of who is being chosen to speak for us. If you choose not to be involved with decisions that affect your life on a daily basis, in our opinion, you forfeit your right to complain about it later. THINK FOR YOURSELF. QUESTION AUTHORITY. Hopefully you will choose to vote on November 2nd.

Peace,
Maynard.
