"Ghost Town" by The Specials is a Bitter FM favourite from way back... the kind of song that you absolutely never tire of. In other words, it's a fucking classic... and that means "don't try to cover it under any circumstances. Well one slipped through the net and changed the rules completely. The new rules are as follows... "Ghost Town" can only be covered by one artist or band. That artist or band shall be 'The Prodigy'- no exceptions. The Prodigy succeeded because they kept the song very much as we know it and they just turned everything up a few notches, except the vocals. More of an updated instrumental. Not as essential as the original but being forgiven is high enough praise.
