Not another cover! This piss-take version of Missy Higgins' hit Scar (review here) was released in 2010.
The immaturity starts with even the concept of the song: a ska version of a Scar... ska scar,... geddit?!
And the implementation itself is completely over the place, as it wildly oscillates between reggae, ska and punk. But it all hangs together nicely.
In the end, though, a lot of the appeal is out of spite. Since the original has been played to death on the radio, it is highly satisfying to sing along to such a ridiculous version of a pop hit...
