The Stereophonics one is the version at the end of The Office.

Badger Stuffer

No it's not............

I clicked the link after writing that. The one I (cough) downloaded from KaZaA said it was by the Stereophonics, and sounds exactly like the one from The Office.

Must be my ears or something because the Stereophonics one does sound different to the one played at the end of The Office.....

I have been called deaf before.....sorry....what did you say again? What? you wished me death?

Holy Ghost

it's the paul weller version: you all tone deaf?

carl

As I said, I got it from KaZaA so it may not be the Stereophonics version at all....

As for who did the original:

Mike D’Abo, the original composer

He wrote the song in the late sixties, and it was released on a one sided 7-inch acetate in the UK in 1970, upon which his name was incorrectly spelt Mike D’Arbo.
Mike D’Abo is best known for being the lead vocalist of Manfred Mann after Paul Jones left to pursue a solo career.
