True, this is just the 'UK Surf' version of this song. Original sounds like this.
Both are performed by the Pixies.
Edit: Because I've somehow never thought about why this version was called that until now, 1) it's because it was recorded in the UK, and 2) the slower, 1960s surfesque vibe.
I came in too late to make a post, but as soon as I saw this, it reminded me of a favorite movie from back in the day that introduced me to a lot of really great music and bands.
Pump up the Volume
One of my favorites from it, after the one you posted
There's also Some playlists of the soundtrack, if anyone is curious.
But that movie introduced me to the pixies, bad brains, concrete blonde, etc.
Which eventually brought me into awareness of "college" music as some people called it back then. All in all an okay movie with an amazing soundtrack
