Eh. They could do better. :/
1i liked it.it sounds like old no doubt.
2I want to hear some original stuff. The cover was decent, but I have always enjoyed their own work.
3Love it.
4Ummm its not working for me...I mean I didn't like it. It wasn't pleasant to the ears...I didn't connect with it...couldn't even groove to it. Its just noise. I hope the rest of the songs aren't this bad.
5Please, it's just nice to hear a REAL artist do something after all the Heidi we've gotten to listen to lately.
6I love it
I think it's great!
7I can't wait to here some new stuff from them
YAAAAAAAY NO DOUBT!!! WOOHOO!!!
(I'm just a lil excited
)
8It sounds like all their other music - even that little riff they keep repeating sounds like the riff from Spiderwebs. Doh!
9I think that they just totally slaughtered a great Adam & The Ants song.
10Shame, because I loved No Doubt.
Its definitely got a No Doubt flavor and she sounds great as always, but I expected something way more fun and dancable ala Hella Good or even X-Girlfriend.
11i really like it actually!
12Why wasn't there an option for HATE IT. Because I do. HATE HATE HATE it. It sounds so horrid.
Look, she's a beautiful, creative woman with beautiful kids, and I imagine a savvy businesswoman. How is it she did not have the sense to know that her band is not suited for this cover and that it is just a really BAD idea?
yes, Oscar_baby, they slaughtered it.
I never want to hear this again.
13It's just ok imao
14Hmmm...I'm not sure. I find for me No Doubt is hit or miss because some of their music is uniquely crazy.
15it's a lazy, easy cover because the original source material is waaaay too close to No Doubts earlier sound. They are not bringing anything fresh or new or interesting to the song. Tori Amos singing "Smells Like Teen Spirit"; now *that* is a good cover
16yeah, i've loved them since Tragic Kingdom. Saw them live in 2002 and they were amazing. I was up in front, and got the pleasure of seeing Gavin come out on stage. Him and Gwen sang "sweetest thing," which was beautiful and romantic. I have been waiting a long time for them to go on tour again. But I have to say the cover is just ok for me, dog. I was really hoping for an original. We shall see...
17I think they should stick to their original music, it was way too similar to the original song by Adam and the Ants IMO.
18they could do better.. or maybe they lost their cool.. blame it on gwen
19meh. have NEVER liked no doubt. now she goes and covers adam ant, blech. i saw adam ant in the 80s so to hear this now is, just yuck! go away gwen.
20It's okay I think we are so use to her by herself- so I have to get back into No Doubt and then it can grow on me.
21Aw... looks like a version of my 'ghosts of manpanions past' LOL
22Sure hope I marry 'Gavin'
HELL YES NO DOUBT TOGETHER AGAIN!!!! I have been waiting so long for this. However, this was not their best work together. They are an amazing band with a great sound. They're trying to gel again. They still have it and I can't wait until July when I can see them play live again. P.S. Gwen is the sh*t!
23Its just okay. They've been out of it for awhile so I understand that this is a mediocre attempt.
24love it!
25i think it has to grow on me...
give me another Don't Speak any day!
26No, I don't really like it...at all.
27Pass on this one. I expected more from them.
28its not my fav no doubt song, but i like it.
29It just sounds like a No Doubt song. Don't get me wrong, I've been a fan for about 13 years now, but it's not exactly ground-breaking stuff here. Not familiar with the original, so can't make a comparison there.
30I love this Adam and the Ants song, they kind of massacred it in this cover version. I would have loved to hear Gwen do Adam Ant's trademark yodel and keep more of the quirkiness of the original. Or better yet, cover "Beat My Guest" instead.
31I love No Doubt, but OH! What have they done to my favorite Adam and the Ants song EVER?!!
32they bore me
33I hated it, Adam did it better. They should stick to original stuff and not try to do covers. especially of an awesome song that cannot be replicated.
34the cover is pretty damn good but i think they got a little lazy. it was in their comfort zone and probably easy. its good to hear them back with their old sound again
35I like!
36I do really luv this song!!It's awesome!!ND never disappoint me!I'm excited!
37Eh. It was ok. I dont like her british accent. Adam Ant originally sang it with a obvious accent. Gwen should have sang it Gwen style.
38ugh i want to like and i dont really...ho hum...they will get their groove back
39eh. agree with some other posts that it was too similar to the original, was hoping for a more personal take on it. also thought the tempo was a bit dirge-ish, this cover has no pep and i found myself wondering when it would be over.
40At first I hated it, but it grew on me. I've never been the biggest No Doubt fan, but I am a huge Adam Ant fan. I think they did a pretty good job at keeping the Adam Ant spirit in it.
41This is a pathetic cover of a classic Adam and The Ants song. Gwen Stefani doesn't have the pipes or the moxie to pull this song off. So lame, such a shame. I'd be angry if I were Adam Ant.
42I hate it because it was a horrible song in the first place, No Doubt might have even made it better...a bit. I heard they were given a choice to cover a song, and they chose this stupid song, what a bad decision.
43I've always been a huge fan of No Doubt. Loved Tragic Kingdom (one of the best albums of all time), digged the "Return of Saturn" era (although, it wasn't really their original style). The problem about No Doubt was that Gwen started to show her "true likes", taking the band away from their original sound. And I was afraid when I heared they were coming back in 2009. I just thought: "Mmmm...I don't really wanna listen to this new "No Doubt", specially with Gwen with all her "Bananas" posse". And I knew I was right! This new song it's just...meh! Well, it's a cover, and it's only one, but if all the songs of the new album will sound like this, then I know this will suck badly! C'mon Gwen...just stick to sing what the band create and stop shoving your taste into their minds! >_
44I liked it! Personally, I hate it when bands do a cover and it sounds nothing like the original...when they try to "make it their own". I don't know, maybe I'm just a weirdo. But I will say, when they did this song in concert it was totally rad. It sounded a lot more awesome than this recording.
45Maybe it's just me, but I was expecting something a little less like Gwen's solo stuff, and a lot more like the older No Doubt. I have to admit, I'm a bit disappointed.
46RainyDays is right - we need a HATE button. Please listen to the original if you haven't because it is one of the best songs of the 80's. I've loved ND since '91, back when Gwen's bro wrote all the music (i.e., when it was good). Listening to her now, it's a wonder she ever cranked out Tragic Kingdom.

I'm a huge fan of Adam and the Ants (especially the Ants). Not so crazy about the cover. I feel that if you're going to do a cover, then it's got to be as good or better than the original... Their version is OK... but not a good as the original...
48It was ALMOST there!.....You misses some of the major drub parts...listen to the origial again....it was soooo close!!!!!
49I feel stupid I spelled drumb wrong but you know what I meant even if you read this.....you were all awsome tonight!!!!! I love it when I go to a concert and you are better in person!!!!! I am a 42yr old mom with two girls..... 19 & 12 yr old and we rock out "Rock Steady" on the way down the shore on vacation every year.....it gets us in the mood to go!!!!!
