I'm arguably one of the keenest, fondest, most talibanesque Peter Gabriel fans of the globe and I must say that I like this cover very much. It's funny and original and weird. Bravo.
The first time I heard this song, my reaction was "WTF?" And then I found myself listening to it again, and again... and buying the album.... and then the other one....
I think it's very hard to cover this song in an Epic Metal (isn't that just gothic?) way. Since NK is the only one ever to do it I can't really say if it's good or not. I can only say what I think, I think it's a descent cover. But it also kinda destroys the song. Just my opinion.
Professional in regards to metal, pop, classical, country; certainly they wouldn't all be the same? What are the attributes of a professional arrangement decision?
Do you have any idea what you are actually talking about?
Like Waylon, Johnny, Kris, and Willie were the Outlaws of country, these guys are the Outlaws of metal. I'd love to hear some original material from them, but both of their albums are frickin awesome.
Actually the only songs I like B.M(Beofre Marco) are 10th man down,she is my sin,beauty and the and beast and wishmaster...I really don't like Sami because he IS NOT a good bassist and he is also an awful vocalist in my opinion,sorry for that but that's just my view right?
I'm not a mayjor fan of Angels Fall First, but anything after that with Sami was pretty good. Yeah dude, that's your veiw. I personally like Marco alot better than Sami aswell, but Sami seems like an alright dude and he was in Nightwish, so he's cool in my books.
Maybe, but Tuomas wanted Marco to join because he was better than Sami...and I don't really care why Tuomas kicked him out as long as Marco is in his possision!
As I said....I don't care....I already know that,I mean,it's not something important...what matters is that Marco is in the band and Sami is not...peace OK?
@nightwish568 I don't think Sami ever did any vocals, did he? At least in terms of studio work, I know Tuomas did it himself on Angels Fall First (and hated every minute of it, apparently), and they had some guest vocalists on Oceanborn, Wishmaster and the Over the Hills EP. Unless it was background stuff I didn't catch, so far as I know Sami never did vocals. Anyone know for sure?
are they only doing covers ?

They could have done much better this song. Arrangements are chosen in a such non professional way. It's pity.
