Bjork covers that one with an orchestra, I think for a movie soundtrack (soon zehrl be prayerss) and so does Elvis Costello, with his acoustic guitar. On the same CD with his version of "Gloomy Sunday" Costello also does "Love For Sale":
When the only sound on the empty street Is the heavy tread of the heavy feet That belong to a lonesome cop I open shop When the moon so long has been gazing down On the wayward ways of a wayward town That a smile becomes a smirk I go to work
Love for sale Appetizing young love for sale Love that's fresh and still unspoiled Love that's only slightly soiled Love for sale
Who will buy? Who'd like to sample my supply? Who's prepared to pay the price for a trip to Paradise? Love for sale
Let the poets pipe of love in their childish way I know every type of love better far than they If you want the thrill of love I've been through the mill of love Old love New love Every kind but true love
...for sale Appetizing young love for sale If you want to buy my wares Follow me and climb the stairs Love for sale Love for sale
Then there's my faves the Replacements!
