   About Violent and Crazy
Like a Morricone-style dirge recorded by The Mamas and The Papas, Violent Femmes’ cover of Gnarls Barkley’s infamous “Crazy” is like nothing you’ve heard from the legendary alt-rock trio before. Their oft-imitated folk-punk sound is flavored with surf-rock guitar and Theremin, creating a tranquility that is somber and otherworldly.

I've loved y'all forever.
The original drives me nuts, maybe because it'd get stuck in my head.
But yer version is oh-so palatable.
That's all I got...
