Paladin Playlist 58

Ah, here's an old one for you. I'm sure everyone's heard Duran Duran sing Hungry Like the Wolf, but have you heard the cover from Reel Big Fish? I'll admit that's the version I heard first and, frankly, I like it better.

Sure there's some bias in there and yes, this was in the early days of the internet and I might have heard it paired alongside a Lupin III: Castle of Cagliostro music video, but that doesn't take away the fact that I absolutely love this song. In fact, it helps me a bit with one of my characters... and possibly a specific scene in an upcoming story with them.

This version is far more upbeat. There's a presence to it that just isn't in the original. The Duran Duran version felt too slow, to languid, but this... this feels like a chase. It feels active like a wolf on the hunt. 

So, please enjoy the Reel Big Fish cover of Hungry Like the Wolf.
