99 Red Balloons!!

I heard this song a while ago and I liked it alot but i never really got into it to much. Well recently my friend was listening to it while i was talking to him on the phone and I just had to download it.. legaly of course

Well I LOVE it now and its like my favorite song of all time. The lyrics are hardcore awesome and so is great.

I have the Gold Finger cover btw.

So what do you guys think about the song? Which cover do you like the best?

Yeah, the original version is better. But the cover is still good anyway.

It's crazy how many different bands have done covers of this song. Goldfinger, and... well I know I've heard lots of others, anyone know the others?

The greatest cover of 99 Red Balloons is by 7 Seconds. No other band did it like they did. For all of you that dont know who 7 Seconds are(you should be killed) they were Ian Mckay's(Minor THreat) west coast Straight Edge project in the 80's. One of the most awsome Hardcore bands of the 80's. PM me if you want some of there songs
