Please, Please, Please Let Me Get What I Want

I got to admit that I don’t know much about The Smiths except for a few tracks. But this track, Please, Please, Please Let Me Get What I Want, is one of the favorites. And the many covers out there are excellent in their own rights. Here are the few of the covers I have in my list, in no particular order. Please, please, please do enjoy them. Lyrics after the jump.

The Smiths: The original version.

Muse: Rockier version by the ultracools.

Clayhill: Pretty, emotional cover by the folk band. Off from a soundtrack, apparently.

Elefant: From the Sky High soundtrack.

She & Him: From another soundtrack, (500) Days of Summer. She = Summer = Zooey Deschanel.

The Autumns: Weep. Please.

Please, Please, Please Let Me Get What I Want

Good times for a change
See, the luck I’ve had
Can make a good man
Turn bad

So please, please, please
Let me, let me, let me
Let me, get what I want
This time

Haven’t had a dream in a long time
See, the life I’ve had
Can make a good man, bad

So for once in my life
Let me get what I want
Lord knows, it would be the first time
Lord knows, it would be the first time
