@turnerjamese Aah, whoops I shouldn't have labeled it 'Pulp'since they're not the ones performing. Thanks for sharing the info!, it's fantastic to hear that the cover went over well with him. it's such a unique yet engrossing take on the song - something that on paper sounds like it shouldn't work yet comes together in the end to not only function but transcend.

This is absolutely magnificent. Is it Jarvis singing the choruses?

Just checked...it's Joe Jackson. According to Wikipedia, Jarvis was flattered by the cover version. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_People_%28song%29#William_Shatner_cover_version
