Hooverphonic — Shake The Disease

I'm not going down on my knees
Begging you to adore me
Can't you see it's misery
And torture for me
When I'm misunderstood
Try as hard as you can
I've tried the hardest I could
To make you see
How important it is for me
Here is a plea
From my heart to you
Nobody knows me
As well as you do
You know how hard it is for me
To shake the disease
That takes hold of my tongue in situations like these
Understand me
Some people have to be
Permanently together
Lovers devoted to each other forever
Now I've got things to do
And I've said before
That I know you have too
When I'm not there
In spirit I'll be there
Here is a plea
From my heart to you
Nobody knows me
As well as you do
You know how important is for me
To shake the disease
That takes hold of my tongue in situations like these
Understand me
Here is a plea
From my heart to you
Nobody knows me
As well as you do
You know how hard it is for me
To shake the disease
That takes hold of my tongue in situations like these
Begging you to adore me
Can't you see it's misery
And torture for me
When I'm misunderstood
Try as hard as you can
I've tried the hardest I could
To make you see
How important it is for me
Here is a plea
From my heart to you
Nobody knows me
As well as you do
You know how hard it is for me
To shake the disease
That takes hold of my tongue in situations like these
Understand me
Some people have to be
Permanently together
Lovers devoted to each other forever
Now I've got things to do
And I've said before
That I know you have too
When I'm not there
In spirit I'll be there

Whenever I hear a Depeche Mode Cover I need to go to the bathroom 
This one really hurts...
This one really hurts... Sounded familiar....
HOOVERphonic, huh? What ? Do they live in a vaccuum? A 6.
wow. amazing update to a great song. adds a new sheen without detracting from the core one bit.
Really enjoyed this take. Huge DP fan
Discovered Hooverphonic a few years ago, adored The Magnificent Tree album. This song, however, is an irritating miscarriage of a mess. It should never be played again.

WOW!!! I'm so glad someone uploaded this! It's one of my favorites off the "For The Masses" tribute album.
I tried uploading two others from the album May 2003, maybe the times they are a-changin'.
Interesting take on one of my favorite DM tunes - I don't hate it.
