King classic, "Stand By Me." This is to be featured on the soundtrack of an upcoming movie entitled, "Extremely Sorry." Expect the soundtrack to hit the shelves on December 7th.

It wasn't that bad of a cover man...

I honestly thought Lemmy could've been a little heavier on the vox. Same thing applies Dave...he could've added some double bass or something.

I'm listening to it right now before I download it for free. It's not bad, though I find Dave's drums to be a little intrusive.
