Over the years they also did a fast and an acoustic version with Rob Halford as lead singer, but I'm afraid to admit that interim-singer Ripper Owens simply outclassed Rob here.


And seeing as you mentioned punk, I suddenly remembered a small local punk/ska band from my youth.

with the odd line from Bros' "When will I be famous" thrown in for good measure.
