The wonder of it all is how did they manage to keep straight faces when performing that
And, hugely ironically, Lacuna Coil's cover of Stars mashes the Dubstar original:

One legend covering another - wouldn't say it spanks it but I like it.

This doesn't really spank the original but it's one hell of a way to make an introduction. Strange Bones are a Blackpool three piece that surfaced last year and put out this cover of Prodigy's Spitfire. Given that it was more or less thrown together in a garage it's one hell of a statement of intent. Saw them live at the Wedgwood Rooms last year and I can see why some of the music press define them as "feral". Great fun.
