My baby shot me down

Because Nancy Sinatra's excellent "Bang Bang (My Baby Shot Me Down)" was mentioned in the responses to my previous post, it seems a good time to share this cover of the track by The Raconteurs. I'm pretty sure I got this at Berkeley Place several months ago, so thanks to Ekko.

The Raconteurs - Bang Bang (My Baby Shot Me Down) [live 7-3-2006]

While I'm at it, here's Nancy Sinatra's classic version of the song:


Sooooo good.

I'm actually not sure if I have. Seems like it, but prob didn't make much of an impression because of Sinatra's definitive version.

You are welcome. As for Sinatra, I'd still bang her hard.

The Sonny & Cher version is the original, written by Sonny Bono, but yeah, Sinatra's is one of those covers that improves on the original.

I saw Murder By Death cover this song, and it is a great cover - by a great band.
