Can’t Hardly Wait (Tim version) – The Replacements
Rocking,
rollicking, heartbreaking, will never understand why they later went
with the wimpier version for it’s official release. Supposedly it was
because the song’s about suicide; am I the only one to have since figured
out that they pussified the lyrics to stick on a later album which
featured a song (“The Ledge”) about…suicide. Christ. And if this had
made Tim, there would be no doubts possible about what the single
greatest album of all time was. - XMASTIME
Every version of
Can't Hardly Wait is great -
the Tim version is on my short list of best songs ever. BUT SERIOUSLY,
How many version of
Can't Hardly Wait are there out there? There's the album version. The
(best version) Tim
version. There's
the acoustic version. There's versions with horns,
without horns, with/without strings. Then
there's another version
that's a mix of the Tim and album version. Sounds more like a demo than an "alternative version" as it's listed.But still cranks
(duh.)
